I think that you can dictate in any field where you can type.

Hello Everyone:

When using the newest Iphone when sending email or serfing the web can you
use just voice commands instead of typeing.

I can type but have never done it  on a touch screen.

Brian, you have to be more explanatory when you talk about speech being
built-in. Siri is an assistant which is part of the software for the I-phone
4S and 5. Programs like Vlingo etc would be more of use for the I-phone 4 or
3GS. Although Vlingo might offer some capability beyond Vlingo, or perhapse
Dragon dictate, if you are concerned about typing on a 4S or 5 then I would
consider getting a keyboard, instead.
