Thanks, George, Sunil found it.
So there's a demo and only for the US market by looks of things, though
I thought the UK one was supposed to be there!
I'll come back to this later when I'm more awake . . ..

Hi Carol,
You first need to go to http://www.handango.co.uk and then
do a search for "Voice Command" - without the quotes.
The first that came up was in fact that product.
The URL for it however is almost impossibly long, and is
listed below where it should end in - Search=Voice+Command.
There is a demo available, but right now I don't have time
to try it as I'm expecting a visitor.
George.
