We discuss the various issues related to the design and implementation of multi-modal spoken dialog systems with wireless client devices. In particular we discuss the design of a usable interface that exploits the complementary features of the audio and visual channels to enhance usability. We then describe two client-server architectures in which we implemented applications for mapping and navigating to points of interest.
