Best iPad App for dictation

Dragon Dictation is an application from Nuance that takes your voice and turns it into text.This is one of the best ipad apps we’ve tested for dictation on the ipad. We really like it. Since all of the voice to text transcription takes place on Nuance’s servers, you do need to be connected When you open Dragon Dictation iPad app all you’ll see is a big record button. When you tap the screen, your iPad will begin recording your voice. Once you’re finished recording, you need to tap again to stop. A recording of your voice is uploaded to Nuance’s servers and transcribes it into text. The text can then be emailed or copy and pasted into any application on your iPad. If there are errors in your transcription you can tap at words and choose from a list of alternate words. If the word you’re looking for isn’t in the correction list, you can manually fix it with the iPad’s on-screen keyboard. It’s not possible to train Dragon Dictation like with Nuance’s desktop applications, but the application will read your contact’s names so it can transcribe them accurately.
One way we’ve been using it is to dictate our Tweets to Twitter. You can be sitting
with your iPad at the Dentist’s office or at stoplight and dictate a quick Tweet and send it to your Twitter account without leaving the app. Pretty cool.


Steve Jobs Health in Question Again

Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs sent out an email to Apple employees and vendors today stating that he will again take a leave of absense.  The leave marks the second time in recent years Steve Jobs has been forced to step back from his role at Apple due to his health. He took medical leave in the first half of 2009, returning to the company in late June of that year. Steve Jobs is a survivor of pancreatic cancer and received a liver transplant while on leave performed in Nashville, TN. Tim Cook will run the company in Steve Jobs absence. Cook was at the Verizon event which was a little surprising since Steve Jobs is the CEO. That was probably a sign of his declining health. Apple is timing this news release carefully with today’s market being closed and tomorrow Apple reports earnings. This will likely rock the Apple stock price all day tomorrow and likely all week. This is sad news for Steve Jobs and for all the Apple stockholders and loyal Apple customers. We wish Steve Jobs the best of health and recovery for any treatments he must endure.
