I think the thing people are missing here is that it doesn't work in all 
markets. It's not available where I am in New Zealand, but based oN David 
Woodbridge's podcast, he has it in Australia. It's certainly available in the 
US. So if dictation doesn't work for you when you turn Airplane mode on, you 
may not be in a supported country for this feature.
