Does this thing slow down your Axim a lot when it's turned on? If so, that would be a good reason that you couldn't turn it on with a voice command. In order for it to recognize the voice command to turn itself on, it would already have to be on, in effect.

That means it would be chewing up CPU cycles and RAM all the time, analyzing sound input just in case you happened to say 'VC On'. I doubt that the Axim would run well with that application running perpetually in the background.

I would guess that to make this thing work really well without having an impact on other applications, it would need to be built into hardware using a dedicated chip. Maybe the next generation will do something like that
