Could be incredibly useful for blind or visually impaired people. But to the regular man in the street, let's be honest, it's just a gimmick that will make you look a bit of a dick trying to use it in public

In all occasions where you want or need to be doing something else with your hands, such as driving or when your hands are not steady enough for touchscreen use, such as when exercising.

Whoopee now facebook updates which say "is driving to the shops" and "is running on the running machine" can happen on demand :facepalm:

When hands-free kits first came out, allowing people to make calls while looking like they were talking to themselves, they looked bloody stupid. Now they're perfectly normal. I think the same will apply here.

Disagree with this bit. When out jogging (for example) a text arrives and (assuming you're using your headphones for music anyway) you just tell your iPhone to read the text to you, then read your reply to it. No need to stop... perfect!

All the while looking like a complete ****.
