Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you all know that I figured out what was going on with the 
Dictation app on my iPhone.  I had gone into the settings and chose 
"Automatically detect end of speech" thinking that whenever I paused, the app 
would begin a new sentence.  Instead, what this setting does is, when you pause 
speaking, it turns off the recording.  So, I was speaking a bit and whenever I 
paused too long the recording was turned off.  After turning this setting off, 
all is well.  You can dictate quite a lot in 30 seconds!! <smile>

Thanks,

Russell
