I bought this software at Costco and it does a pretty good job of typing what I speak. It's not perfect, but since I type slowly, I think I'll get some use out of it. It cost me $50, and I used it to write a three-page letter last week. There are ways to correct spelling with voice commands, but I just fix it by typing the corrections.
This is the first time I've tried using it on the boards. I found out if I say the words go, and the word ...well, I guess I can't even say the word that's the opposite of front because my computer sends me to the previous webpage. So I'll have to turn off a setting it on be able to say that word.
Anyway, this is interesting software, but it can create some interesting mistakes at times so I thought I would just try out dictating a post to signs 101 and at the same time asking if anybody else has used this program. This is the second time I used it, and it does seem like a convenient way to get some typing done. I try to speak very clearly and break my sentences with pauses. The program does a pretty good job punctuating my work. There are detailed instructions so I could learn to get better results.
I've done some editing above this sentence, but I'll leave the rest as it came from the software.
It except us, voice commands such as saying the word new and the word paragraph is how I've created this paragraph. As you can see the plural for accept got misinterpreted by this program in this paragraph. I just need to enunciate better.
Now I'm then try a one paragraph where I'm speaking quite naturally and fairly quickly, and I'm not looking at the screen and when it's all done I'll look back and see what kind of results I get from speaking quickly.
A not bad, speak real fast owner of this thing can understand me when I speak as fast as I can put the words together and see how it types of for the last paragraph of my stupid post for everybody's at signs 101 ha ha ha ha ha... it works, sort of.
