J Say now comes in Professional flavour! Which allows it to control the
computer completely with voice as with Jawbone. The developers of J Say are
claiming it is an improvement on Jawbone. However you still need to use
Dragon Professional for the J Say pro version to work properly.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers
David
