Default VoiceBox Navigation in Scions?

reading slashdot and came across a link to this article:

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1915071,00.asp

"IBM partner VoiceBox Technologies implemented ViaVoice in its VoiceBox Navigation system, found in Scion automobiles. With this system, the driver can control XM Satellite Radio via conversational speech. Specifically, the driver can change stations, increase or decrease volume, as well as control other basic functionality."

anybody know anything about this?

right. a voice activated nav system would be excellent, and they reference it as if it will be an standard scion option.
