    Ok, so when using the Voice Control for the navigation system, it takes SO long to get through all the prompts, the lists, the confirmations.... like trying to navigate the phone tree for a utility company or technical support.

    One of most pressing issues at the moment is that it appears you are forced to wait for the system to read all the options on every screen. If one wants Destination, one shouldn't have to wait for the system to read through the full list of options every time and wait for the tone.

    Anyone know of ways to interrupt and move through the system faster verbally?

    Press the talk button twice in a row.

    Just press twice on the voice button instead of once and you can dictate any command.

    Plus the nav owners manual has instructions for disabling the reading of options, so you don't have to double press the voice command button.
