Wow I'm writing this with a pen

Hi Carolyn, this pen and tablet sound pretty cool and perhaps I can justify the cost when I buy my next laptop. Next on  my list is the iPhone. Take care.

Hi Carolyn, the reason I type is because my handwriting is horrible, even in HS & College I would type before word processors:))So now my handwriting is so bad when I look at my notes I can't read them either:)))Technology is so ammazing.:))

I had thought about going with a tablet several years ago. Instead I went with voice recognition software (VRS), specifically Dragon Naturally Speaking (DNS). The reason? I can talk a lot faster than I can write or type. I have Version 8, which is 99% accurate in the four voices for which I have it trained:

• normal voice
• sick-with-a-cold voice
• margarita voice
• need-to-get-this-done-in-a-hurry voice

My Partner also uses it, but he has only one voice.

If you ever find an error in my blog entries or comments, it's because I went back to edit a word or two and introduced a typo. Editing just one word or phrase is still faster with the keyboard than with VRS. But when I have thoughts on my mind and need to get them down on paper before they dissipate, there's nothing like VRS.
