Hi guys

I am currently using a dragon professional version 9 voice software. I'm in Pennsylvania there is a place that loans materials and devices for people with disabilities. It's a free service and they send the equipment right to your home by UPS. They have every thing from computers,software, and just household devices. You can just fill out a form online and submit it and they send it to you within a few days. It's a great service especially since it's free. You get to borrow the equipment for anywhere from six to eight weeks and then UPS comes back to your home and picks it up. You don't pay for shipping either.

I thought I was just borrowing the software to put on my own computer but they have to send you a computer with the software on it. So I ended up borrowing a laptop with the software installed. It's an awesome laptop newer and fast. This software is pretty cool it's the newest one out there. It takes some time to get used to but if you're using it for just basic things it works great. I now have been able to navigate the Internet and computer totally by voice. I can't open programs and new windows all by telling it to do so. Sometimes it gets confused and doesn't get what I'm saying. Especially since my voice is different pretty much every day since my surgery. You can constantly re-train it but it takes time. Also it is very sensitive to other noises so you need to being in a quiet area. I was on the phone yesterday and forgot to turn off the microphone and it was tight being all kinds of things which was so funny. For the most part it works pretty good but I could see that he could get frustrating and old if using it all the time. If you would like anymore information or if anyone wants to know about the service in Pennsylvania please feel free to e-mail me and I will get back to you when I can.
