Default Voice Command

Any further info whether the Voice Command button does anything but stare you in the face? My salesman insists it works.....I disagree. Can anyone confirm?

Default It works fine

I chose not to include it on mine (apart from the Bluetooth phone voice option).

I did get a demo though and it seemed to work as specified. Some of the MMI functions via voice would have been nice and perhaps with hindsight I would have included it to save me fumbling with the MMI whilst driving.

Default On US spec cars voice command works only if you dont have Navigation

The electrical system is different that way and is the only way for now. Because of the electrical system different configuration it is impossible to have the Tech package w/o Navi

Default One of the regional trainers from Audi of America

I am the S5 guru at the local Audi dealer. Unfortunatelly Audi of America is not plannig to build enough cars. We are facing the issue of not being able to fill clients orders on a timely fashion. Shame on Audi, if they dont want to sell them for whatever reason, they should have told us so we dont get so excited about the car, and dont get clients excited either. THere has been 2 months with no allocation of cars for the ENTIRE COUNTRY! I cant call this anything but stupid.

Sorry for venting
