    BobA,

    Some say Dragon Naturally Speaking works relatively well (Voice to Text transciption software). In fact, I know a few docs who use it for their office notes. Never tried it myself.

    Thanks, Jon.. not sure that would be the answer... there are often times that I type more better than I talk... I think it would be a loss/loss situation.. but I'll take a look

    nowadays there are several voice recognition programs that work very very well as long as you have a decent "close talk" microphone.

    the lack of close talk microphones is the primanry reason why erratic results can be had with the voice nav in the Prius.

    i use an old beta version from microsoft ( the commercial version was incorporated in their office 2003 program)

    my version had to be trained (the new one doesnt) but i now have it working fairly well. realize i have been using it since 1999 so ive gotten fairly well used to it.
