  Hi Zach,
  thanks for the review, I didn't know this application before. However, I still think Adaptxt is 10 times more useful than VoiceMode for text messages and the reason is that unlike writing an email the contexts where I write a text are when:
  * I'm doing something else as well (and start speaking would interrupt that task)
  * I cannot talk (e.g. meeting)
  Just my 2 cents.
  
  Regards,
  Reda

  @Reda Thanks for your comment. Different users have different needs but I would agree with you that Adaptxt is more important to me. In my eyes they are very different but both useful. Adaptxt is a replacement for T9 - a much better way to manually input text on your device. On the other hand there are many situations where VoiceMode is much more convenient. For example, dictating an SMS/email using VoiceMode is infinitely safer than any alternative.
  
  I would never leave VoiceMode enabled all of the time as I do with Adaptxt. That is the reason I wish the app had a hotkey shortcut to easily anable/disable it. Launching the settings app with SkyeQuiKey is easy, but a hotkey would be easier.

  Nice blog. Ugly black background. Smallish font. Awfully faint foreground color. Impossible to read.

  Thanks for the comments @Ariel - hopefully some day I'll have the time to find a nice new theme. In the meantime I hope my feed in your reader of choice does the trick!

  Beware, this App uses feedback to main system via Internet, and is Data hungry!

  Thanks @jeroen! :)
  
  It actually looks pretty good on my monitor but I can see how it might not be good for everyone. Maybe I'll hold a design contest... ;)
  
  @Andrew Thanks for the note! My data connection is always live so I hadn't even noticed.

  When I tried this application on my E61, instead of typing the words, it was matching phone numbers in my contact list and dialing the phone number! How do I fix this? Any ideas? I tried to turn off the voice aid, but that did not help.

  hi zach, about this app.. I can't find any trial download link on their website. I might be doing something wrong, but I hope I can try the app before considering a paycheck :).

  @Santosh You should definitely email VoiceSignal about this error.
  
  @jeroen Unfortunately there's no trial version that I can find... :(

  Well into Feb-08 and there is still no sign of a British English edition for the N95.
  
  Is there anything going on in the background with this product being bought/sold or something ?

  @Ian There most certainly is a British English version! I wish you had commented sooner... Check it out

  Sadly not so - That's the link I keep checking - see the last sentence of para 2:
  
  "Please note that the British English version is not currently available for Nokia N95."

  How lame! Too bad there's not a trial to test the current version... My only suggestion is to email them. Maybe they'll give you a beta version. Crazy that it doesn't support Nokia's most popular handset of late!
