ProgramsDragon Naturally Speaking
Cost Varies depending on the version, Currently $199 for the version I use at home. Turns Voice into type. I use it for longer texts ( I wrote the March newsletter using it.) Can be frustrating if you have speech issues and does take a while to train. That said if you can invest the time and speak clearly can be a great help with Writing. Premier AT Is a set of tools which includes a talking word processer, talking dictionary and txt to speech for documents and websites. Even better is there is a version available for free to use at home for Mac or PC.
