What he uses is MacSpeech Dictate and he wrote that he has been using it for quite some time now. So if David Pogue uses it, others should definitely give it a try, too. The current version is MacSpeech Dictate version 1.5.5 Kyle, Have you tried MacSpeech Scribe? If so, how does MacSpeech Dictate $289 compare to MacSpeech Scribe $199? Both seem to do much the same, but obviously MacSpeech Dictate must do more, or better … <http://www.voicerecognition.com.au/macspeech_dictate.htm> Cheers, Ronni 17" MacBook Pro Intel Core i7 2.66GHz / 4GB / 1067 MHz DDR3 / 500GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200rpm OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Windows 7 Ultimate (under sufferance) -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Unsubscribe - <mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au>
