You are the only person on this thread to say that. Mind you I wasn't surprised looking at your services.

I understand what you mean even though others have bashed you

. There's a difference between having your phone beside your ear and talking into it as a conversation compared to holding it in your hand saying 'Write text message to Sarah... Sarah I am going to be late home for dinner xoxo' or 'Google... Naked Pamela Anderson'
We've had voice control for years now on many phones, maybe not as integrated as Apple is going to have but does anyone here regularly use it?
I have a mate who more than a year after iPhone had video chat/calling (which other devices had years before) STILL insists that video calling and chatting will become popular. I don't think Apple have cottoned on to the practical point that people don't really want to shout at their phone to type a text message or want everyone else to hear their phone call in video call mode.
Video call has been around for years and never really made an impact so I don't know what Apple thought they would bring to the table to revolutionise it, there are a few good articles highlighting why Facetime might become popular (
