TuVox Voice Interface

I've used things like TellMe, which played an ad everytime it didn't understand you, but I'm wondering if this sort of thing is starting to work anywhere. Anybody called Handspring for tech support lately?"

    Actually, I was wondering how many /. readers were going to call Handspring just to see how the system works. Is it possible to /. a phone system?
