    G'daiy, maite, can voice to text work with an accent?

    DH is Australian, and thinks he would like to move to a DroidX, although he is concerned that he will 'never leave work,' but he has an accent; no "R's" and pronunces an ending 'O' or 'a' with an er.

    Does anyone else here have an accent and uses the voice to text feature successfully? I get some pretty funny translations myself without an accent. His fingers are too big to use the keypad (he tried.) I did try searching but couldn't find anything. I can't imagine that he would be the only one with this problem......

    I believe there are free plugins you can download to make the phone match your accent. You would probably find it in the language and keyboard setting... I may have dreamed it though.

    I have some friends with some "wicked" strong Boston accents and it seems to work ok with them, probably not quite the same as having a full on Australian accent but the Boston accent is pretty thick.
    Anytime someone dares me to walk a mile in their shoes I do it! Because, hey free shoes and I am now a mile away from that person!

    Hatred is by far the ugliest trait any human can possess (think about it)

    I'm from Boston and the phone works decently for me. Sometimes it will get wicked retarded on me, but I just tell it to calm its liver and it gets me what I am asking for.
