I don't see the advantage of voice control to change channels.
Who is everyone? My experience with voice recognition is that there is almost no way it could possibly be faster than manual entry. Not when you take into account the "go back and correct mistakes" factor.

Or when it gives you results that you weren't looking for because it completely misheard you.
