I ran it on a Windows ME machine and every time you open Talk It Type It, it places a toolbar at the top of the desktop. That's not a bad thing - until you close the software. It leaves a blank space where the toolbar was, and reopening the program places the toolbar *below* that space. (Refreshing the desktop does not fix this.)

Despite repeated training sessions, I had major problems when it came to the software distinguishing commands from words. Half the time, it typed instead of responding to commands like "capitalize," "new paragraph," "scratch that," "delete that," and "delete [word]." (As you might guess, I had to use those last 3 a lot.)

I suppose it's fine for instant messaging, but I wouldn't use it beyond that.

The newest version TalkItTypeIt- TalkItTypeIt 2 (Standard, Deluxe and Ultra versions)works great and saves a lot of money vs. the Dragon competitor. The new Microsoft 6.1 voice recognition engine in TalkItTypeIt 2 has a very high level of accuracy- many feel that it is superior to Dragon's, and the Ultra version also includes voice navigation that works amazingly well, allowing complete hands free operation of the PC. Unlike the directional navigation in Dragon (move up, move left, etc.), TalkItTypeIt 2 Ultra provide direct access to any point on the screen just by saying the word you are trying to navigate to. Pop up hint tags get associated with the word, and saying the number associated with the hint tag is just like cliking the mouse button. This "screen recognition" technology is truly amazing.

For anyone interested in trying voice recognition software without breaking the budget, this product deserves your attention with prices starting at only $29.95- with a voice microphone headest. You won't be dissapointed.

This was the most disappointing and useless purchase ever. Despite exhausting voice training, it typed everything except what I said. Don't waste your money. I would'nt even give it one star.

This is one of those pieces of software that never really works, but you can't really get rid of. I've used it once when I could modify my voice to make it do as I asked (it would have been 10 times easier just to type it out). It appears every time I boot up (sorry, I am sure I should have de-clicked something upon install...) and it takes forEVer to initialize, slowing down everything ,even though I don't even want it. I uninistalled it to get rid of it, and the interface still appears on Bootup. It's like poison ivy that just won't go away. We don't need any more software that a)takes over and b) won't leave when asked.

I'm still learning how to use it . But you have to work with it sometimes it hears things different . it learns your voice you have to teach it some stuff . it is frustrating sometime but I believe if you work with it you can get it to work for you . I would not recommend this for anybody that is not willing to work with this because you will have To backspace even as I was saying backspace it was back spacing but I've backspace a lot and arrows to correct the mishap . It does have a lot of words that it knows but some you have to add maybe because people voices are so different . It is not to bad for me I will give you a demonstration . now how I are you doing today will hope you be had a good day today announced at work for my bow to the sea UC I see the UC now you see night fiesta and now you see. I believe it can be done if you try you can get it to work for you sometime I have to put my hand to my mouth and speak towards the mouthpiece the M. I. C. . Because sometimes it just don't hear you. clear speaking elves Phelps L. O. L. helps . I like it . I'm not using it for professional use . I am using it to help my spelling. it may work for someone else and it may not for someone else. I may not speak as clear as somebody else and someone else may not speak as clear as me . I could give it a good report I could give it a bad report. Either way you'll have to make up your own mind. I like it but it doesn't mean you'll like it . this is cheaper than the dragon naturally speaking at this time . my dragon never worked for me. That doesn't mean it doesn't work it just means it didn't work for me and this one seems to be doing pretty good for me for my needs I could never write anything like this without help now I can . my spelling is very poor ,my reading is pretty good and my memory is not the best hopefully this can help me remember How the selling is. it can help me remember because I will be writing more . I have to read this to make sure it's right . anybody with the spelling problem I would give it a try because and might help you to. It is better to do something to help yourself then nothing and wished you did . As long as you know,the words when you see it then this might help .This is my first time writing a review I hope nobody laughs @ me I give it a four star because it helping me . In

Couldn't get it to work right, could have been my mic. Don't know for sure but it just didn't work for me.

The program worked fairly well but it takes TIME for it to recognize your voice and type the right words. It is not something that you just install on your pc and go. For the price, it is worth the time and effort. Just don't expect perfection.

This is a bad program. I wanted to save some money so I bought this as it was the cheapest. I found out why. It's worthless.
Don't waste your money.

Not only did I never recieve my product but I never recieved a refund for my purchase either. Where is my product? Where is my money? I am still waiting to hear back from this seller.
