I use the voice commands often, for both phone and Nav. I occasionally get recognition errors, but not so often as to be annoying. My biggest problem at the beginning was in trying to remember what the valid commands are. I also find it a bit slow having to step through the sequence of commands to dial by name. I would much prefer a system that responded to "Call John" rather than "Dial by Name", etc.

When dialing by number, I find that it works far better if you don't try to speak too slowly, and don't insert pauses, but rather let the numbers run together as they do when you speak naturally. If memory serves, that's also what the user guide recommends.
