Speech to Text Converter

Have you ever been frustrated by how difficult it is to see the keyboard and to type with accuracy and speed? Or do you have trouble typing in words to perform a search or to shop for an item on line?
If so this low vision technology may be for you. It allows you to convert your speech to text. For example...
1) Watch your spoken words appear in documents, e-mail and instant messages. Just use your voice to dictate and edit in virtually any Windows application, including
Microsoft Word,
Microsoft Outlook Express,
Internet Explorer,
Mozilla Firefox and
AOL.
2) Surf and Search the Web just by speaking
For instance you can ask for a weather report, research a topic, find a recipe, shop on line or check the news.
