A whie back we saw that RIM had quietly included voice control into BlackBerry 10 on the BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha. Bits and pieces of the feature have appeared in various places since, but we haven't really seen it in action to know just what it would be able to do. Turning up in the CrackBerry forums earlier today, this leaked screen shows off some of the commands that are available via voice control in BlackBerry 10. It looks it will be pretty full featured in that you can perform a ton of commands using voice control.
Seen in the screenshot, we can see that you can perform functions lile making an appointment, sending a BBM or email, make a call and search the internet. While this is just a short list of what we see here, we can assume that there will be more included commands to go along with it. We haven't heard too much else on voice control to know just what it will be capable of, but as it looks now it should be a welcome new feature for BlackBerry 10 users.
