VoicePlayIt for PalmOS
Wed Jun 20, 2007 - 10:23 AM EDT - By Jay Gross
Conclusion

To run pTunes with no hands, VoicePlayIt does a great job simply and easily. Peruse the user manual first for an easier time, but the program is admirably intuitive, and its handy wizard helps you set it up. The company, which sells other voice recognition programs for the Treo, licenses the underlying engine to software developers, so maybe we will see some other interesting Treo applications.
