Hi there, future switcher here.
I am curious if anyone is succesfully using a Powerbook for speech recognition, either using iListen ( www.macspeech.com) or IBM's ViaVoice (now distributed by www.scansoft.com).
I am a physician using a Pentium-M 1.6 laptop and Dragon's Naturally Speaking for my daily notes/letters. I have been considering a Powerbook purchase for some time and this is the only remaining hurdle.
I am particularly interested in comments on integration with Word, the ability for custom scripts/macros, as well as general accuracy/ease of use.
Thanks very much,
Mike

Frankly: dictation software on the Mac is at least a generation behind what you can get on the PC.

P.S. Welcome to the forums. In the future, keep in mind that each forum is for issues pertaining strictly to the product in question. Your question isn't about PowerBooks, it's about software, so post any follow-up questions there, thanks!
