The Plantronics Calisto bluetooth headset is currently the sole wireless option Nuance suggests. If you prefer to go wireless, there are not many (blessed) options available.
Nuance also has a download only and Bluetooth microphone options as well. With the version of Dragon Dictate I received, Nuance included a Plantronics USB microphone for vocal input. Once that is accomplished, you are almost ready to start talking to your computer. The first step is to load the software onto your hard drive, followed by the vocabulary/grammar database. So, with their recent release of version 2.5, Nuance sent me a copy of the software to give it a go.Īs with most applications today, installing Dragon Dictate for Mac was extremely easy. He has written several very positive commentaries/reviews on Dragon Dictate for Mac. What/who convinced me to make the leap was Dan Cohen, a fellow writer/reviewer over the.
I have debated for years on when to give this type of technology a try, always worried that whatever software I tried would fall short of my expectations. For Mac users, their Dragon Dictate software is really the best (and potentially only) option at this point. From everything I have read, Nuance is the industry leader in the technology. It has taken a while, but those times are here (and some would argue that they have been for a while) for both the Windows and Mac users alike. In the interim, I hoped for computer and software technologies to evolve to the point of being able to talk and have my speech transcribed into written word. I was so bad, in college I used to bribe my girlfriends with dinner out on the town if they would type my papers for me, thus saving me hours/days of effort. I was in band, shop, PE and even took extra math and science to get out of typing. It is my own fault, during high school I did everything I could to get out of typing class. This is not ideal for my day job or writing reviews here at.
The black and white, dead-truth of the matter is, I am a horrible typist. If you buy something through the links on this page, we may earn a commission at no cost to you.
