Bring it on :)

While we are going all blue sky - I would like to be able to talk to
mine and tell it to skip this track etc especially when I have it in
shuffle mode, which is a lot of the time, so I could say 'Catpod' (as
thats its name), and it would recognise this as a command to wake up -
and perform the next command 'Skip this track', 'Go to playlist' etc.

Apple already do something similar with Mac OS X speech. You press a
listen key, give a keyword, then speak your commands.
