Not just voice dialing.. voice commands.
"Call Cindy"
"Find history of New York" to bring up a google or wikipedia search
"Navigate to work" etc.

I haven't been a huge fan of voice dialing before, but especially the navigation and search features on the Droid seemed very convincing and easy to use. I'd probably adopt them as soon as they were available.
Google has the advantage of being able to train and develop its voice analyses program from all those Google Voice (soon Gizmo too), Google 411, and all other services it offers where people can speak. I noticed because their voicemail transcription is improving.

Though somehow I think if I were to try voice dialing on any non-Google phone then it would work just as well as when I tried it with my old cell phone that I had for 3 yrs till now.
