I'd love to hear about this, too. I'm planning to get a voice
recognition package for my partner when she starts law school. (She's an
incredibly slow typist, and tried to tear her right index finger off a
couple of years ago, which slows her down even further.) Hearing about
real-world experience would be a big bonus.
I can please only one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow
isn't looking good either............................................
