I found something interesting that will improve the experience in 10149... For these in the US, if you don't need Cortana, set the region to UK. Needs to reboot the phone to download the UK English. I found to be more stable and less buggy.
Times like these I'm glad I have TWO phones and I didn't just throw everything to the dogs and download a technical preview onto both of them like only a gibbon would do. I still have Cortana on my daily driver.
I've got access to Cortana and my phone is set to English UK in both region and speech settings. However I doubt I will ever get used to that posh accent, I have so tried but it just makes my skin crawl.
The very same reaction you get when you scratch chalk on a blackboard....

I like having Cortana keeping up with those things that slip through the crack on my daily grind. Just tell it to remind me to get meds from the drug store when I get near Wal-Greens because its near where I get gas and there goes my reminder.
