I just tried the voice commands ... I only have voice commands related to making phone calls. Is voice commands an option?

Cheers

Yeah, that must be it, because we native Californian's have such thick accents!!
its not the accent its the insertion of the words "dude", "gnarly" and "hang ten" while saying commands, like...

"check control messages, computer dude"

So, what I understand is that I should not be saying "computer" before every command like on the original star trek?

I have to admit, I have not tried this feature yet. My kids and I have a laugh everyonce in a while, because the car talks to us, but we always seem to end up with AM radio!!!

BTW, it was my 8 year old son who noticed my car is both a "boy and a girl"..... Navigation feedback is a female voice and voice command feedback is a male voice. hmmmm, can I change voice command dude's responses to sound like Kelly Lebrock (think Weird Science!)
