Really? It's the first I've heard of it....please, tell me more.

Hmmn, word recognition.....I"ve heard people talking about how sometimes the developers can program these systems with little 'easter eggs', so if you say a certain word or phrase, the system will respond in a 'special' manner.......of course I'm 100% certain that Porsche would NEVER allow any "special developers who might have some "issues" with Porsche to put something like that into their products.

But it would make for some funny moments at an auto show or showroom demo.....just speculating of course.

Take a look at the Top Gear with Mercedes S Class system, this seems to be a close copy:

I wonder what these words might be. My guess is 'Stück Scheisse' or 'Kool-Aid'.

I would absolutely crack up if that were to happen. I mean just imagine you are cruising around and the NAVI tells you to turn and you don't - then the NAVI comes back with a "hey dummy, I told you to turn this Stück Scheiße here". I would have to stop and cry with laughter.
