You’ve read the headline correctly – we’re still coping with news from the Mobile World Congress. The sheer number of information was unbelievable and since there were some important announcements we’ve missed, it’s our duty to report them, even if we’re late. 
Anyway, Nuance had two important announcements in Barcelona:
- Nuance Voice Control (NVC) 2.0 was released. It’s the “customizable modular framework” that allows operators and handset manufacturers to speech-enable any feature, application, or network service on any mobile device, feature phones included. The solution combines command and control application – VSuite, with Nuance’s innovative Open Voice Search (OVS), Mobile Messaging, and the ability to inform and launch any native or third-party mobile application. Available in more than 20 languages, NVC allows all commands to be launched from the idle screen, and the graphic presentation is fully integrated with the existing branded applications on the device.
- The second news deals with T9Nav, Nuance’s search and discovery solution for mobile devices. It relies on the T9 predictive text technology to simplify navigation and discovery of on- and off-device applications, content and information. As a result, by typing with just one key press per letter, users can bypass their phone’s menu systems to find applications, settings, games, songs — or any other feature or service available on the device or on the operator’s network. According to Nuance, by using T9Nav time needed for task completion is reduced to up to 67 percent!
