The button is just a key like any other. When running X11 in Debian, it generates the XF86Send key event when pressed. You can, of course, bind this to anything you want, including some voice assist application if such were to exist... -- Eric S Fraga via Emacs 27.0.50 & org 9.1.13 on Debian buster/sid

The button just starts an Android app (assuming Android is running) that does voice search through Google's or someone else's system. Nothing special in hardware, no support in other OS. -dsr-
Gemini PDA -- Voice assist -- does that work with all the OSs
I now see that the Gemini PDA is available with 4 operating systems (maybe one is still vaporware), but they are Linux, Android, and 2 versions of Sailfish. It has a voice assist button, and I'd like to know more about how this works: * does it work with all the operating systems available on the Gemini? If not, which OSs does it work with? A somewhat related / alternate question is whether that voice assist is totally hardware driven (which I doubt) or does it require software (in which case, that software might work only in some of the available OSs. * presumably, for voice assist to work while the Gemini is in your pocket (which is mentioned on at least one webpage), the Gemini must be on and booted into an appropriate OS? Thanks
