Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11.5 - An iPhone app, Twitter & Facebook Updates

Nuance last month announced a bump to Dragon NaturallySpeaking from version 11 to version 11.5. Whats new? Well just the usual: it's faster, it's more accurate, it's more user friendly and oh yeah, there is an iPhone app.

What the? Yep, rumours of Nuance and Apple cosying up together have been rife over the last few months and with an iPhone app Nuance are tipping a nod to the Cupertino resident as well of course to acknowledging the huge percentage of Windows users who love their iPhones.

The Dragon Remote Mic app (available now on an iTunes store near you) will use your iPhone (or iPad) across wi-fi to provide a wireless mic into Dragon NaturallySpeaking.

Surging ahead also in this release is easy voice integration to post Facebook and Twitter updates without lifting a finger or in my case lifting my legs from off my desk as I recline back in a relaxed dictating posture.

The excitement of the Dragon Mic app being available now soon subsides when you jump into NaturallySpeaking to check for updates - there are none, yet. Should be out mid to end July 2011 so check for updates regularly.

The Dragon Remote mic app is only for Premium, Pro and Legal users. All registered version 11 usres (yes including you people using Home) will get the free upgrade to version 11.5 via download when it comes out.
