    BIG voice search button

    A simple request really. Since we can't to BT Voice commands (for now), how about a large Voice Search button / widget like the one that is on the Car Home screen. It is too difficult to get to the little microphone on the serach widget if you are driving.
    Anyone?

    There is a direct shortcut to the voice search that you can put on your home, that mic icon IS tiny.

    Tap and hold on the soft search "button" in the lower right of your phone. This should activate voice search.

    For me, problem is, whenever I activate voice search I usually get one or two "Connection Failed" errors before it finally works.

    I got rid of the google search bar, silly anyway, just start typing on the KB and theres your search.

    I replaced it with a shortcut to JUST the voice search since I also had a hard time hitting the correct button. Just drag it out from the menu.
