Hasn’t the iPhone had similar functionality for a while now? Even though Android’s implementation looks to be more detailed, it doesn’t seem like this merits a press conference… also like all voice control it will probably fail.

i agree that it doesn't merit a press conference. but i do not agree that all voice control fails. my (albeit limited) experience with Google's voice commands has left me fairly impressed. the voice commands for Google Maps on my BlackBerry work quick well.

That’s true - the technology is getting better all the time.
The only practice I have ever had with Google voice control is the iOS app, so I suppose I can’t really speak for all voice control. It was a lot better than Apple’s implementation for sure though.
Even so, this is a competitor feature that they have improved on. If this is the best they can trumpet then so much for the power of competition. :
