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.
