Sprint's Voice Command goes silent on July 1
You may or may not be aware of Sprint's Voice Command service (and given Sprint's recent subscriber exodus , you most likely don't), but the No. 3 US wireless carrier has announced that it will be shutting down the server-based voice-dialing feature on July 1. Sprint's Voice Command offered Sprint Nextel customers the option to voice-dial contacts whose numbers were stored on a Voice Command server. Unfortunately, that means that all those contacts will be thrown into the ether when Sprint takes their Voice Command service offline on July 1, 2008. The carrier is advising current Voice Command customers to print out their contacts list for reference. Of course, if you have a Sprint handset with voice-activated dialing already built-in, you'll be good to go on your voice-dialing ways long after July 1. If not, just keep hitting that keypad.
