portable recording device, such as the Sony® MZ-R30 palm-sized mini-disc recorder and the Norcomm Model 2500 hand-held tape dictation machine. The Dragon NaturallyMobile software enhances Dragon NaturallySpeaking by making it easier to transcribe the recordings right into the user's document.

The product works well with Microsoft Word, Corel WordPerfect, Lotus WordPro, e-mail packages, Internet chat packages and many more.
