Nuance Dragon for iPhone Lets You Speak Emails

If I am home all day with nothing to do I usually get no texts from friends. As soon as I start driving my car though, and can't safely answer them, the text start rolling in. Nuance has announced a very cool new software app for the iPhone called Dragon Dictation which makes sending texts or emails as easy as talking.

The app uses the power of the Dragon Naturally speaking application to put dictation capability onto the iPhone. To use the app all you have to do is hit the button and speak your message.

The voice recognition technology enters what you say and you can then send the message. I have used NaturallySpeaking before and the speech recognition is accurate, though it was off at times. Typically, it has the hardest time with technical terms and jargon so sending a text laden with insider terms may confound the app. The app is available now for a limited time at no charge.
