Using Cortana with Bluetooth Earpiece

[jsiddle2025]

Was wondering if there was a possibility to use cortana directly by initializing her with a headset.

Example: Have a bluetooth earpiece in, I walk into a dentist office and set up an appointment... Would be awesome to have the ability to tap a button on the earpiece, and talk to cortana, and have her place that appointment on my calendar, have her read it back and then verify it.

I have used the old TellMe, initiated by BT, so I would expect Cortana to work as well. I don't have my BT headset with me, as I rarely use it, or I'd give it a try.

On all headsets I've tried, it's the same with both Tellme and Cortana. You press and hold the call button, after about 3 seconds the headset beeps to confirm it's sent the command, after another second or two you hear the voice command prompt, and then it works exactly as you describe.

Amazing, thank you very much

It already does that flawlessly with my Jabra Extreme

I just picked up a Samsung HM3300. All I have to do is tap the button on the earpiece and the phone brings up Cortana. After a tiny wait, I hear the Cortana sound and then I can start talking. It works perfectly.

But then you feel silly as people think you are speaking to yourself.

I still wish the "sound" was a bit more obvious. Sometimes, with background noise, I miss it.
