Dragon Dictation - Voice Recognition For The Apple iPhone/iPad/iTouch

Hello Everyone,

Today I'd like to talk about an app that you may not have even thought of exists for the iPhone/iTouch/iPad. I'm talking about Dragon Dictation by Nuance. Dragon Dictation is a voice recognition application that you can use for entering notes, text messaging, email, and even updating your social networking status just to name a few just by speaking in to your device. The application is powered by Dragon Naturally Speaking and can be up to 5 times faster than typing on your on-screen keyboard. Dragon Dictation also supports a number of different languages such as English, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and Japanese, Parlez vous francais dragon dictation? Oui :)

This nifty little app will set you back $0. Get it while its free! There's also a version created for the Medical industry called "Dragon Medical" which can be used in conjunction with Nuance's eScription transcription platform.

Final Thoughts on this app. Get it, you won't be disappointed! Why waste time typing out long emails on that tiny little on screen keyboard when you can easily speak the email and have Dragon Dictation do the leg work for you? The application is extremely accurate. But "ip jou tak lak this" it may not be.
