As someone who has been using a Nexus one for a few weeks now, I have to say that I use speech-to-text ALL THE TIME. In fact it's one of the things that really convinced me to give the thing a chance over my iPhone.
I haven't used it much for texting or emailing yet, but I use it constantly for:
- searching the web
- making phone calls ("call sally")
- initiating turn-by-turn navigation ("navigate to town hall")
It's perfect for when you're in your car and you can't safely type. And it's pretty accurate too.
Funny story actually: some friends and I were going to get brunch after a rehearsal, but we couldn't remember if there was an IHOP in the U District in Seattle or not. My friend who has a Droid and I both pulled out our phones and did voice internet searches at exactly the same time, totally without meaning too. Since we were talking at the same time neither of our phones knew what we were saying. :)
