I was messing around with this a week or so ago and I didn't have too
much difficulty with it when I used the key activated speech commands.
Obviously I could only do that when VoiceOver wasn't rattling on about
which element I was on at the time or when I didn't have music on. For
those of you who want to try it, change the key to something that
doesn't interfere with navigational commands, because by default it is
Escape and that blocked any other function the key had, which was very
annoying. When I had it listen out for "Computer" or whichever
recognition word and then the command I got a response 2 out of 10
times, which wasn't very productive on a whole. I think speech commands
just hasn't been developed properly yet, because it's hard to isolate
the command if there's a lot of sound going on. I haven't gotten
dictation programs to work either, but I blame that mostly on myself for
being to lazy to read out the texts to help it recognize my speech nuances.
Overall, I had fun messing with it for a bit, but even though I could
say "get my mail" while I was in whichever app I'm still faster with the
keyboard or trackpad commands.
