and it still needs training but my hands will be safer now.

1. Please report back how well it works.

I always wanted a way to rant into a machine and get text.
so far I have not found a software that actually SAVED time, with less fiddling and corrections.


Protect those wrists/hands, by all means!

2. Well it is working

better than I expected, it will take a little time. All these programs take some training and patience. The fact that the conure is screeching in the background does not help.

3. I am thinking about ordering it. I had Via Voice, but their support

for Apple sucked. VV won't work on Leopard.

4. That's a start. Besides accuracy, speed is a concern as I have a g4 powerbook.

I might give it a tryout.

Thanks, btw, for the tip on Scrivener - I am trying out the free version on one machine, and dl'ed the gold version on laptop.
I use Noteshare and curio for asset management, and journler is a great program - but Scrivener's postcards, outlining and fullscreen are tres cool.

5. You welcome,

I have found scrivener very useful. I uses it for several projects already, and I am very happy with it.

So far one novel, still at work, the issue of my magazine, one RPG book still in progress and finally the content for my web site. It is extremely flexible. As to I-Listen, it will take some training but them are the brakes.
