Hi all. JSay works with Dragon Naturally Speaking professional and JAWS, and there is another software called Jdictate which works with JAWS and the lower versions of DNS. The difference is that the higher level one allows you to launch programs and control the computer, and the lower level one merely provides dictation in edit fields that interacts well with the JAWS program.
Thx, Albert

Also, there is now JDictate from Hartget Consulting (the group that makes JSay) this product has been discussed on the FSCast, but essentially if you just use Dragon for Dictation and not control of your PC, then JDictate will enable all of the panels needed for Dictation. This is on sale until I believe the 15th.
Take care,

Hi Ana, and all,
You can find the Dragon Naturally Speaking program
for under $100 on Amazon, quite often. On this
deal at the link below, it's normally $99, but
it's selling right now for $48.22.

Dragon is the one I'd get if I was going to be
doing a lot of this from now on.
Strive On!
Everett
