Expo First Look -- MacSpeech Dictate
Posted 01/17/2008 at 11:21:41pm | by Roberto Baldwin

 

If you had to choose between typing on your Mac and talking to it, I think the choice is pretty apparent.

 

MacSpeech Dictate is aiming to replace typing with the spoken voice. In addition to writing the words you speak, the program can use script packs that you can utilize to add spoken commands to your favorite applications. For example, within Photoshop you can call out the tool you want to use and the application will choose that tool without using our hands.

 

MacSpeech Dictate is expected to ship in mid-February.

 

Look for a full review in Mac|Life Magazine and on MacLife.com.

avatarI saw it

I saw it earlier this week. It really is something. I expected it to print out a word at a time as you speak, but you say a full sentence and boom, the whole sentence pops up on your screen immediately. I want it too!

avatarI bought 'Dictate' and have

I bought 'Dictate' and have had a NIGHTMARE trying to get it to work - to no avail and despite several fruitless conversations with the customer service team. The program only works in itself - and spits out scrambled rubbish in all other programs... a problem that is WELL KNOWN and mentioned various blogs and forums... but a problem that the MacSpeech CS Team allegedly know nothing about! Poor show. I cannot advise anyone to buy this product.
