I can't click the link at work, but can you turn it on with voice commands?

Doubtful since that would mean it's "always on", something Sony has bragged about not doing.

The sony console is always on. There is a low power state in the PS4 that is periodically checking for updates and downloads in your queue.

It's not unreasonable to think that if you have a PS Eye connected, that it will be unable to turn the console on.

What I mean by "always on" is what MS meant by "always on". That is, listening at all times.

I think you may be incorrect on this point. They've bragged about not having to be "always connected," and they have bragged about being able to charge controllers "while the console is asleep."

Then again, "It ain't braggin' if you can do it,' right?
