Owners of a T-Mobile G1, the first smartphone to be powered by Google's open-source OS Android, will be pleased to learn that Google is rolling out voice search capability to the OS.

Apple's iPhone has had this feature for months.
My only question is this: how accurate is the voice recognition technology? Because if it's anything like the voice recognition on the customer support phone trees we all love to hate, then I don't see the point.
