I bought one of the used ones from this listing so I can't speak to what the new one has with it. I don't think they come with any software though. I would highly recommend buying a used one. The used one I got cost less than half of the new version and the only thing different about it was no original packaging. It looks brand new and works great!!!

I haven't reviewed Dragon Dictate but I absolutely LOVE it. It's increased my content production ability 3-fold... Works great out of the box though I do recommend you go through the tutorials so that it works even better. I highly recommend.

I have recently purchased Dragon Naturally Speaking Premium 12, latest version. I am testing it at this time, so cannot give you a yes or no. It might depend on your version of Dragon and if for a Mac or PC. Mine is for PC. If you search Google for Dragon and what recorders are compatible you will find a list. I believe this recorder was on the list. I will post again soon once I test it further.

Dictation software is available on the Mac. Although I haven't looked at it in a while and it may have changed with the last update, the Mac dictation is far more limited and is more appropriate for a sentence or two or quick commands. Unless it has radically changed, it is not as accurate as Dragon, once you have set up and implemented Dragon. It is good for a quick sentence here or there but isn't yet set up for dictating long text documents the way that Dragon is. I agree it would be much better to have all this at your fingertips within the OS itself (and I'd even be willing to pay for an add on). Dragon definitely could use some competition in this market and Apple clearly has the ability to do this, as does Google. Sadly, neither company has released anything that can compete directly with Dragon. Dragon's software definitely works, but whether you are using it in Windows or OS X, it is definitely quirky and never completely integrates with the host OS. Having the most mature and viable product and pretty much the ONLY product for individual use, has allowed Dragon to charge higher prices, give so-so customer support to retail consumers, and continue to put a product that never quite meshes completely with the host OS (although it remains highly useful and is gobs faster than typing). It is only a matter of time, though, and this is a field where some healthy competition would be a good thing.

Yes that is exactly how I use mine. And the Dragon software is the best I have ever used.

$49.99 is the Home version and doesn't provide some features compared to the Premium: 1.Application Support:Spreadsheets 2. Application Support:Presentations 3. Advanced Correction/Editing : Ability to playback your speech in documents 4. Ability to create multiple audio sources (more than one type of audio input device) sharing a vocabulary within the same profile 5. Ability to import/export custom word lists and user profiles 6. Easily create commands to insert frequently used text and/or graphics by voice You may look up the difference at the url: http://www.nuance.com/ucmprod/groups/dragon/@web-enus/documents/collateral/nc_025214.pdf Hope this is helpful.

I use it with the dragon dictation program. I listen to an audio recording through the headset and speak simultaneously. I believe that is similar to what you do with Rosetta Stone.

Yes, it works with Nuance Dragon Dictate for Macs. I also used it for a previous version of Dragon Naturally Speaking on a PC. The Calisto Pro ships with the Premium Edition of Dragon Naturally Speaking 12.

Hello, I"m currently using version 11 and from what Dragon Support team told me that version 11 has much more enhanced medical library, accent recognition etc. I would say version 11 is a safer bet. So far no issues, works great with Nuance PowerMic II

Mine did come with a simple program in the box but I already use sound forge so I never installed it.

No software included. Works with any recorder app though. One warning - with this mic plugged in, default playout is sent to (nonexistent) earphones. Got to unplug the mic to hear through phone speaker.

I can't answer that as I haven't tried it. There is an app called "Dragon Remote Microphone" which might fill your need. There is also an app called "Dragon Mobile Assistant." Again, haven't used it. Not on my list of things to do. Good luck.

No, there's no software supplied with the device, you need to use 3rd party software. I use the free and excellent software Audacity, available for download at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows. When I installed Audacity I had to solve some setup issues, but finally succeeded after googling error messages and trying various settings. You also need to learn couple of basics in using the software if you're not already familiar with it.

I don't use dictation software so I wouldn't know. I suggest you call Sony customer service to find out.

Yes; a good value, but it disables dictation in the Mac version. I needed that function.

No - there is only one version for Mac which is called Dragon Dictate (version 3.)

I just found your post while asking this same question. I've also found an answer. There's a computer program called Dragon Naturally Speaking that will do this. The basic software, Dragon 9 or 10, is about $60 on Amazon.com. B. Lueders
