OK, find me a phone from the late 90's that has a self contained voice command feature that works as well as the ones from the last few years. Not using a service, tags or training. And must work through a bluetooth headset.
It's nothing advanced. The phone just knows the approximate waveform of the word "yes". Perhaps not even that, as all it needs to know is the difference between "yes" and "no"; high tone and low tone. It wouldn't surprise me if you could just say eee~ and it'd still take it as a yes.
It's more than that. It's actually a program from Microsoft called Voice Command. For example, in my address book. I have Barack Obama in the address book with phone numbers for his home, work, cell, car, company, work2, home2, radio, assistant. I would say, "Call Barack Obama at home", system would ask me to confirm, I'd answer "Yes" or "Next". No training, no tagging, or special service. Yes, this feature has been around for the last 3 or so years though, but buggy until just the last year or so. Definitely not in the late 90's.
