[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 401238, member: 1963"] There is a software application out there called 'Dragon' or 'Dragon Dictate'. You speak into a microphone attached to the computer and it translates your word into text. I don't own it, but likely will need it in the future. I have a friend who has MS who uses it almost exclusively and I tried it out at her house. It comes with a 40K word dictionary that you can add additional words to. You punctuate and capitalize by speaking. If I wanted to say: "Susie needs to type something." I would say: Open quote cap Suzie needs to type something period close quote". The awkwardness wears off very quickly and it becomes stream of consciousness. It's also not horribly expensive. I've seen it on sale for as little as fifty dollars and any office supplies store should carry it. [/QUOTE]
