I really wonder what's so hard and difficult to utilize voice-activation
when it's available. I really didn't find it difficult to setup contrary to
what john walker said in his help-file for speak-freely. It reduces lots of
bandwidth and the delay-adjustment didn't help that much in my opinion, but
anyway i think this feature is valuable, i am just not sure, if i was using
it in a proper way.
Currently i am using sf 7.6a.
