Hello everyone,

I'm having more and more tendonitis problems in my forearms and am seriously thinking of buying Dragon, or I'll have to stop working altogether.

I've been doing a little bit of research and have come up with this:

and this IBM edition, I don't know if it's Dragon itself?
http://www.nuance.com/viavoice/osx/

Does anyone know more about it? Has anyone tried anything similar?

Thank you so much for your answers!

MacSpeech Dictate, powered by Dragon's engine. It has just been released and it is currently available only as crossgrade for existing iListen users - so you would need to buy iListen first and then cross-grade (for 29$) to Dictate...

cheers,

Thanks Roberta Feb 8, 2008

It seems that's the solution...

I am now trying to know if they sell it only for English, or if they already have other languages' versions.

Thanks for the info!

Anne
