Accent shouldn't be relevant

Microsoft Recite?s voice search makes it easy to retrieve your stored thoughts and notes by using voice pattern matching. It analyzes the patterns in your speech and finds matches between two recordings -- the notes you stored on your phone, and the search you do using your voice.

It never tries to understand WHAT you said, it only tries to match sounds. You could invent your own language and it should work just fine. What probably wouldn't work well is to have 1 person store the note and then have another person try to find it.

the site says it is available in English (US) and not the English(UK)

I believe this is just for the UI.

I found it always finding the correct voice note every single time

In my experience, MS techs never work well for people who already hate MS. One of the funniest videos I ever saw was from the iPhone blog when they were doing the smartphone round robin. Watching him be purposefully stupid while using the WM phone was painful.
