Yes, this headset does work with Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. In fact I'm dictating this response using this headset and Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. You must buy the Plantronics Bluetooth enabled dongle and plug it into a USB port in order for it to work properly with your "Bluetooth enabled" laptop. I originally made the mistake of buying just the headset and not the Bluetooth dongle. The dongle is specifically adapted to work with the headset. (The bluetooth radio that came with your computer is not specifically designed to work with this headset)As far streaming music, I do not know the answer to that.

This works with Dragon Naturally Speaking PREMIUM. That's why I bought the PREMIUM. You can record on this and then feed it to Dragon. But in addtion, this recorder has proved to be invaluable in taping conference call meetings. I bought a mic for it that you put in your ear (and plug into the recorder) and then put your headset over it. It works beautifully if you get the phone call mic (about $16). It has helped so much in preparing minutes after an hour call with 16 different people giving information on numerous topics. I love this recorder. It can't understand the voice of others, so I just use it for phone calls to listen back myself. But for Dragon Premium it works great in picking up your voice. So you can record things on the go, and plug into your computer later.

I purchased it to function with Dragon Speak software. It will do this if you have that software.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Does NOT work well with iPhone, November 12, 2007 By cafehenri "cafehenri" (New York) - See all my reviews If you are like me, looking for a headset that lets you control your iPhone, listen to music, and answer calls without taking the iPhone out of your pocket, this is NOT it. I am sure this is a great headset with other devices, but NOT with iPhone. It pairs to the phone, but not the ipod on the phone. I found out after buying this product that it's because Apple's bluetooth support is pretty weak. When pair with a Macbook Pro, everything is in mono (not stereo, wow, amazing Apple support of bluetooth). From reading online I found out it's not the issue with this phone, but Apple's lack of support for wider bluetooth products, but still, I wish the product description would have said "doesn't work well with iPhone at all."

It depends on what you use to play your app. Most computers don't have Bluetooth (they have their own speakers) but any device with Bluetooth (phones, tablets, etc) should work. Hope this helps!

I have live streamed it to my Motorola Atrix II, but I have not tried to link it to a laptop. It searches for a bluetooth device that has the Looxie app installed.

Yes. I have had success with streaming radio form certain apps. You may have to check the settings on the app to make sure it is set to allow bluetooth headset listening. This model (M20) is by far my favorite bluetooth. I have tried many before. Plantronics puts Motorola bluetooth headsets to shame. Google talk does work with this bluetooth from my Ipad. I have not tried it with my phone though. By the way, always buy bluetooth in "new" condition.

To the best of my knowledge, it only works with Bluetooth. I read the sparse specification pages and the specs only reference Bluetooth. I loaded mp3 song lists onto my iPad and iPhones and it interfaces well with the Pad & the Phones because they do have Bluetooth.

This microphone works with all versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking as well as Mac Dictate. It serves well as a starter microphone.KnowBrainer, Inc.

I have been using it with my iPhone DJ of course iphone plays only one channel. What that stuff does is to split your audio of one deck to your headset and the other to the speaker out during mixing. On my ms7 through the Mac. It plays left and right audio on one and headset on the other. That stuff is only for dj. You don't have to buy it if you are not using it for DJ.

Although I use this recorder with a Macbook Pro which is not compatible with the software interface, I do know others that have used it on a PC with Dragon. As long as you obtain a clean recording (one w/o a lot of background noise such as street sounds, music, etc) the transcription of the recording to text through Dragon is fairly accurate. It will be necessary to validate conversion especially if the recordings come from multiple voices / accents. And it will not be able to distinguish between differennt speakers so you will need to annotate the text with each speaker's name.

Hello: as far as I know it only works with Apple products, I use it with my IPod and iPad, and also can play from my PC using ITunes. I tried my android devices they don't work, i believe you need to have Air Play in your device and so far the only ones the have Air Play are the Apple kind. No Bluetooth, I tried that too. I hope this answers your question.

Ha! I never tried it.... let me know if you do.. ok? I have only used this Bluetooth headset to talk and receive calls on my home cordless phone. If you clipped the wire onto your lapel to secure it I bet you could dance & sing along w/o a problem. if you try it and it works let me know.. have fun!

I had a regular bluetooth adapter that I used in the past in order to pair with my PC. It worked intermittently. I bought a Nerd and am now able to pair both with the ICON and my Jambox (to use as a conference-call speaker phone) without problems. Note that the Nerd is not a generic bluetooth device so you can't pair other things with it. However this has turned out to be a good thing. Now I can pair the ICON with my iPhone over bluetooth and with my laptop via Nerd - no conflicts.

This works with any device that has Bluetooth. Also, it has an audio input as well (cable not included), in-case your device does not have Bluetooth. So it will literally work with any digital audio device you may have.

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.
