Does anyone know if/when Infiniti will restore all the voice commands originally found on the 07? Thanks.

What commands did we loose?

That's a very dangerous question you don't want answered.

Us 08 ownwers lost a lot of voice commands compared tot he 07's.

So.....
The suspense is killing me.
What voice commands did we lose in 08 vs. 07?

I believe an example would be a direct temperature command like--->

"Temperature 68"

Here is a link to the lost voice commands. 07's and early 08's still have them. 08's with version 8.1 don't.

from what ive heard, the voice commands are built on a hardware level and not software....so i dont think updates are possible

will they bring it back for next models? I dont know

Yes, I hear it's coming back in the G35 'Knight Rider' package - you'll have all the usual commands, plus have useful features like auto-valet, and 'rearrange yourself into a completely different car'...


EDIT:>> Auto-valet would be really cool: "G, go find yourself a parking spot"

Being an engineer, I don't see how it would at all be cost effective to build voice commands into hardware......no....in fact I would be VERY surprised if it wasn't a software solution. My guess, if they're running WinCE, is that they're using a subset of MS Voice Command.

I believe unit runs QNX for the OS.


EDIT: Here is an old thread about QNX in G.

i dont know exactly how its done...its just something i heard..so please dont quote me on it

but i know for a fact they are running Linux and not WinCE. BMW iDrive is WinCE....holy cow is it a slow laggy piece of tin
