Hi Steve,
Aside from Cowpland, don't you think voice recognition is for real now though? Microsoft is in it too I think with Lernout & Hauspie and Kurzweil This guy thinks so too see: #reply-2737096

Speech-Recognition Software A Time-Saver -- Dragon Courts Legal VARS
The campaign's primary target is resellers familiar with the Corel Corp. Office suite, which traditionally has sold well into legal markets.

"For people who want to truly automate their document management, this product in the vertical market has tremendous potential," said Alan Adler, vice president of LexTech Inc., a Dragon premier-level VAR based in Hoboken, N.J. He said he expects to introduce Legal Suite as a solution to insurance firms.

The NaturallySpeaking Legal Suite is being touted as a time-saving application because it will eliminate time spent waiting for tapes to be transcribed, said Keith Byerly, Dragon's product manager of developer programs and tools.

Legal Suite is an enhanced version of the Newton-based company's speech-recognition software. Enhancements include a legal vocabulary, a 230,000-word legal dictionary and new Command Wizard, which is designed to make it easier to create speech commands. The Legal Suite version has a street price of $995 bundled with Corel WordPerfect 8.

Steve, what was the reason Wildcard Technologies went broke? Was it bad management, bad promotion, or was it just that the technology was not accepted by consumers? I saw a similar voice recognition software on TV that seemed to work really well. I don't remember what brand it was, but it seemed very functional.
