I remember about 6 years ago I had IBM ViaVoice on my Pentium 166 and it worked pretty well for speech-to-text (as well as text-to-speech), it didnt make that many mistakes if I remember correctly.
With the amount of emails I now answer daily I would really like to know if voice recognition has gotten better in the past 6 years? What is the latest and best voice recognition program?
Thanks
According to a customer of mine in Newcastle he hasn't found anything anywhere that will recognise anything other than the Queens english, spoken like the Queen.
So that would be "no improvements" from me!

Voice recognition is only as good as the person training it. Trying it out for 30 mins is not enough.... in fact 6 months of daily use it will still possibly make mistakes, but then again that's true of people too.
Pray tell Mr Freddy why using voice recognition software would result in the bombing of the nicest country in the world.Quote:

I think there are one or two that will recognise grammar and sort out problems like above, if anything they are cool to play with.
