Google Voice Actions now available in select European languages

Google Voice Actions has been a killer app for Android for just over a year now, and should be one of your favorite apps if you're an Android user. The app allows you to use voice commands to do various tasks, and now it's available in 5 new languages.

Until now, Voice Actions have only been available to those of us lucky enough to speak English with an American accent, but a new update is bringing support for British English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian. So, now users around Europe (and really anywhere in the world who may speak one of those languages) can use Google Voice Actions on any Android 2.2+ devices.

Voice Actions allow you to: send texts/e-mails, web search, maps search, call contacts or Places, open website, and get directions or navigation. It is available for free in the Android Market.
