WOBURN, Mass.-VoiceSignal said its new speaker-independent speech recognition software is included in Samsung’s VM-A680 multimedia wireless phone.

“The opportunities for voice-activated solutions on mobile devices are endless, and VoiceSignal is pleased to continue teaming with industry leaders such as Samsung to introduce new solutions that empower consumers and business users to be more efficient in their busy lives,” said Rich Geruson, chief executive officer at Voice Signal.

The VM-A680 phone retails for $150 after rebates.
