What about the apps ReQall or Dragon on iPhone. I dictate
into my iPhone using Reqall and the text arrives (usually perfectly
transcribed) in an email for me. Amy

from my iPhone do you
think a system like CaptionMic is what she'd want (you speak into a "boot"
that directs your voice to the computer and silences it
externally?)

Hello everyone,
I received an email from a colleague and really don't know the answer.
See inquiry below.
I assured her I would post this question and hopefully some wise AT
person will have an answer.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Alisa
Do you know of an AT product that will
allow
speak to text capabilities? I have degenerative arthritis in my hands that
has destroyed the joints. I no longer have
much strength in my fingers that
are crooked and swollen. I do not write fast. And, I type, using
Dragon 10
which I understand that there is a program
that is compatible with it on the
market. That device is one for which I am searching. I need something
small
to speak into that will take notes verbally
that will not distract others
and interfere with an ongoing meeting. Then, my hope is that the
device will
transcribe the info to written format that I
can use electronically. Also, I
need a way to speak into a receiver and dictate into text so I can
refer to
notes when at a Conference. This device would
be invaluable to me now since
I
have difficulty swiftly writing it down on paper.
