Does this work well with the voice recognition program in Windows 7. I can't stand typing anymore. Please advise.

I was watching the Engadget Show yesterday and they mentioned this keyboard does not have a Right-Click button? Can anyone verify that? That would be a pretty big consideration for anyone purchasing this unit for their windows boxes.

I'm not sure, about using it with Voice Memos; I never tried that. But the BlueFire app is free, and works really well.

Yes, but I prefer to use 'audio input' by hitting the Microphone button, then speak into it. It will type for you. I think it works well, but does take a little practice. ie: end of sentence, say 'period', or comma (where needed), of say question mark, etc.

I have Windows 7 and had no problem with this headset. I just plugged it into the computer and it worked beautifully. I needed to do nothing else.

I dont know I only have windows 7 but just for your information, the mic sucks. It is very low.

Yes. I'm using it with Windows 7 and have no issues. Little calculator button, forward, back, reload... all work. Volume control works great too.

I got it to work for Skype, so I know that it will link up with Bluetooth that has mics built in, so I assume it will. I no longer have this devices, broke in couple months, but I have a similar device and I will check it out with the Microsoft voice recognition, and let you know.I have tested windows 7 speech recognition software with LG Tone HBS700 and got it to work. To get it to work you need to set it to default.

Yes it does depending your application your using it for. If you have problems you can roll it back to legacy driver which is included with Windows 7. You can do that in the device manager. It should work with out problems for most applications except for audio interfaces which seem to need the legacy driver. I hope that answers your question.

I am writing this using the IBM electronic C-1 1022 600 - one. You can see that it picked up IBM instead of Andrea. You have to be a little careful in the way you speak in order for it to work. This was written on a Dell computer using Windows 8.1. I have had some troubles with it while I'm on the net. Usually I use it with word. As you see it does work, and I can tell you from experience. It is a great joy for me. I use Dragon speak and not the Microsoft voice rec. It is crazy to pay what Dragon speak, costs, but if you're going to need voice rec it's worth it. This was written without any corrections from my keyboard. I am writing this using the IBM electronic C-1 1022 600 - one. You can see that it picked up IBM instead of Andrea.

You should, provided the connections are right. The microphone can be positioned directly in front of one's mouth, so clarity can be assured. Keep in mind that with almost anyspeech recognition system there will be a learning period both on your part and the machine's part. Since it works with my Dragon(r) speech-ware, it should work with Win 8 just fine.

I believe that was the keyboard I returned because it caused Windows 7 to crash. It didn't work right. I think I gave it a very low rating.

I've read the other comment sent to me. To answer: I have windows 7 and have absolutely no problems. I can even use my own headset but the one they send it actually really nice. They do have trial versions of Rosetta stone and coupons to make it all cheaper. As long as you buy it from a certified and legitimate retailer I don't think you'll have any problems like I did. I still have it and use it about three times a week to keep my Chinese fresh.

I've been using it since I purchased it with windows 8 and I have had no issues whatsoever. The software and keyboard itself work completely fine as far as I can tell! Hope this helps :)

I use it with Win-7 for phone calls at work. I've had zero negative reports from those I talk with - all say it has excellent volume and voice quality and clarity.... should work well for reading/recording books. My wife bought one also for her online teaching work... uses it daily - loves it.

I don't know. I use it with Windows XP with no problems, and I used a lot of keystrokes, rather than mouse like cntrl + c for copy.

Yep! I have it on my win 7 desktop, and it works really great. The only issue was making it (2i2) the default audio out or in when I have some other audio programs like acid studio and Sibelius they are midi based so that can be an issue to manually switch, in windows 8 the trade is automatic between the midi programs and asio drivers. The upside is that becuase of less backround apps, like in win 8, you can have the buffer higher, so you lose latency sooner. On win 8 I have the asio driver bottomed-out, I can hvae it at like 7ms. Hope that helps.
