AT&T isn't writing a speech-recognition application for iPhone.
Instead, the company is developing a web service called Speech Mashups
that sends your speech to a remote server, which translates your
command to control your handset. Since the service will be online,
most browser-equipped AT&T handsets will be able to utilize this
technology, but currently AT&T is focusing on iPhone.
There's also an alternative in the works. Fonix Speech is currently
developing iSpeak, an iPhone application that the company promises
will bring voice activation to iPhone 3G -- voice dialing, iPod
control, you name it.

Much like (the now three-year-old) MS Voice Command for WinMo devices- you
can voice dial, play media, or open any app by speech.
Like our buddy Oxy says... "someday all phones will work like this..." ;-)

Sprint just dropped a similar application because it wasn't needed
because all the phones have voice-dialing already. As long as AT&T isn't
charging extra for this service it's a decent substitute for voice
dialing, though it won't work on other GSM networks while traveling.
It'd be great to know why Apple has been unable to include voice dialing
on the iPhone.
