Multiple Match Text Editing & Formatting - New In Dragon Naturally Speaking 11

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 which is due to hit Australia in late August, early September 2010 is bristling with new features, enhancements and tweaks here and there to make us even more warm and fuzzy than we are already. Personally, I still quite can't believe that I am talking to a computer and it knows every word I am saying and I have been doing this for a few years.

One really neat feature in Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 is the multi match text. In this version when you select a word for editing or formatting, if multiple words match your selection they are each given a number. You can then select the text you want to edit or format by its number. Single entries can be changed this way or all entries. This is a much quicker way of selecting text for editing and formatting than older versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 - The Latest & Greatest From Nuance

In a press conference out of Nuance in Burlington Mass. a couple of days ago Nuance announced the arrival of NaturallySpeaking version 11. With speed and accuracy improvements comes a revamped UI with an emphasis on ease of use and compatibility with Microsoft Office 2010.

The product family names have also been changed slightly to protect the innocent. Gone is the Standard edition, now called Home. Gone is the Preferred edition, now called Premium. The Professional edition retains its name.

The Premium edition will come in three types; standard, wireless and mobile. The wireless edition includes a nice Plantronics Bluetooth headset for those who like to walk around while dictating. The mobile edition will include a Philips voice recorder for those who like to record themselves while out and about.

DNS11 is expected in Australia towards the end of August or early September.

Some news for all Australian bargain hunters. We have just created an eBay store to fill with bargains. These will be ex-demo recorders which we have used, tested and evaluated in the office. Also listed will be recorders which are brand new but have been discontinued or superseded by newer models and the occasional new current range recorders at bargain prices.

This is a way for us to clear our desks of demo recorders and bring a smile to the Australian public who crave a digital voice recorder bargain ;-)
