Etisalat Voice SMS
 
"Are you using hands free, sir?"
"Well, one hand's free, how d'you think I'm holding my mobile?"

Here to help for those awkward moments when trying to navigate the Land Cruiser and text at the same time: dial "*" before the number, press call, then speak your message, then hang up. Costs 18 Fils extra per call.

Just wonder how the one-size-fits-all voice recognition is gonna work: (in thick Arabic voice) "Oi, Abdul, d'ya think I can drive safely after 10 pints?" "No, you c*n't."

i have used it... it's not the comedy voice to text service that you (and I) had hoped for. It is a voice mail service that simply sends a text message to the person saying 'you have recieved a voice SMS, dial **** to pick it up'

it is so bad it sucks and blows.
