Attention myTouch 3G Slide owners: Get Vlingo for free
That’s right. Vlingo is free, for a limited time, for MT3GS owners. All you have to do is visit Vlingo’s site from your computer, click the “download now” button for Android, fill out the form and BAM, you’ll be emailed a download link. This only works on the Slide (Tested by our fearless leader, John). Trust me. I tried on my Hero. The rest of us still have to pay $9.99.
“What’s Vlingo?” you ask. Vlingo allows you to control your device with your voice. You can open apps, compose texts and emails, and use other voice commands. On the flip side, they’ve also integrated SafeReader which will read your texts and emails aloud. Unfortunately it doesn’t work with the Gmail app. But if you use the stock Mail app for work or other POP/IMAP accounts, you’re in luck.

And what the hell is Vlingo?

The “genius” button on the slide lets you launch apps. Just push the button and say open [app name]
btw, anybody else notice the magnify/select/copy text feature? Just long press on text on any webpage.
i have the slide and it didn't work. It said it didn't recognize my device.
OMG Thank you for this. Not Vlingo announced this. I wonder why? I follow them on twitter I don't recall reading any of their twitts in regards to this. Thank you!
doesn't the mytouch 3g slide come with the genius button and the voice activation software out of the box?
the genius button pretty much does all that already
I wonder if it didn't recognize my device because i'm rooted…? still running stock rom btw.
I tried to get this and it didn't work. Still wanted to charge me for the app. I've been a little disappointed in the so-called genius button. Mine doesn't seem to know who any of my friends are when I ask it to text or call them.
any other tips/tricks like long presses/etc. ?
