Voice Activation Trigger

I have been in contact with PAC about a trigger for the Z1 for voice activation. In other words, you could assign one of your steering wheel buttons you don't use to activate the voice command feature of the Z1. Can anyone definitively tell me whether or not the Z1 is capable of that? I swear I read here somewhere that someone bought a steering wheel control that did just that...but I'm betting it was IR and I thought the Z1 was wired only...so maybe he was talking about another unit.

If this is possible, PAC is very interested in adding this to their SWI-PS controller. Wouldn't it be nice to just touch a steering wheel button for voice activation instead of having to reach for the icon on the Z1?

Bigfloppy...isn't that an IR remote and not hard wired?

Yes, the CD-SR1 is an IR remote......

That's what I thought. I need to find out if there's a way to trigger it through the hard wired remote. I'd be surprised if they offered it through the IR remote and not the hard wired port. Maybe I should see if I can get a response from Pioneer on this one.
