The headset and software works great!

The headset, which I didn't really need (I use a stand-up mic with my desktop), is better than the old headset, too, though still a bit on the flimsy side

Also, although this software comes bundled with a headset, I got better results with a headset/boom mic combination I already owned

but even with a better headset that I can't afford I simply cannot see that it would get to the point of being fast or fun

The headset included didn't work for me, I'm not sure why (hence the four stars), but it works just fine with the Rosetta Stone headset I already had.

One big improvement is getting a new headset

I am not disappointed!After just a few 'training sessions,' the program correctly recognizes somewhere around 90% of my dictation - and that is while using the rather inexpensive (if not a bit flimsy) headset that comes along with the software

BUT...they are happy to recommend that you shell out MORE cash for a better quality headset

Once you ditch the cheap headset it comes with, you'll be golden

Just because you think a headset is good doesn't mean that it is good for Dragon

Though I use my Logitech Wireless, It did come with a pretty sturdy wired headset of it's own

However the headset is the least comfortable of these options

I have used the "better" headset that came in the bundle from Amazon.

I am going to look into a reasonably priced dictating Bluetooth headset which would be extremely convenient

If anybody can recommend a good wireless microphone headset (or microphone) that I can wear with my bowler hat, I'd be appreciative!

She then informed me that the headset that was sent with Dragon is not compatible to Dragon.

But for the life of me I have yet to find any reasonably priced headset that doesn’t squeeze my head too tightly

The headset is of surprisingly decent quality, with respect to the microphone, but lacks adjustability, cord length, and becomes uncomfortable after a few hours

It did come with a nice headset which impressed me, so I'll give it 2 stars instead of one

Perfect for those lengthy e-mails.

That said, Dragon does improve as it goes, they say, and it can learn from your other written material, including documents and email

The only way it works as of right now is if I keep hitting the Dragon icon that turns the microphone on and off.

I know that this will help me with my side business as well as with my regular job

I have a figure named da Ponte, and it took about 500 pages for Dragon to learn to call him that rather than "the Ponte," (or maybe it's because I now exaggerate the D in dictating).

Perfect for those lengthy e-mails.

I am currently trying to dispute the charge with American Express because they won`t take the product back once it is opened
