Actually, I am trying to use it on my Sony Experia phone, not my PC.
I have problems making it use punctuation marks. If I say 'comma' it inputs the word comma, same with 'full stop or 'period'. Any tips? or is it just a bit of a gimmick rather than actually usable?

The online forums seem to suggest that you need to speak clearly(I am sure you do) and slowly. They also suggest that you need to pause before and after reach command.

//. Speak more slowly and clearly.
. Pause before and after each command. The text of your command might show in the document for a moment. For example, if you say "select all," the words "select all" show up before your text is selected.
. The microphone shows a bubble containing the most recent command. Verify that Docs or Slides heard the right command. If not, you can simply say "Undo."//

Thanks Togo, I have tried speaking at different speeds and intonations, 'comma' always appears as, well, 'comma! ('Full stop' too).
Ta Imret-sir. Just a though ... the automatic punctuation is set to off by default on most Android phones and needs to be enabled in settings. It should be somewhere in System, then Languages and Input, then Onscreen Keyboard then there should be a toggle for enable punctuation.

Thanks Togo for that suggestion, I looked for a 'punctuation' setting, but dont seem to have it on my version of Android.
Is there a "Google voice typing key" shown anywhere in the menu or even a leanback keyboard if it is not showing onscreen keyboard?
