Speech recognition is very good these days, and very easy. But it does still
make the odd glitch so using it with JAWS I understand doesn't work great.
Although there have been debates on the email lists about whether you need
software such as J-say to work with it or not.

Subject: jaws speech recognition software
Dear All
I got an inquiry about speech recognition software from a sighted person.
The guy obviously does not know the difference between Jaws and for example
Dragon Naturally Speaking.
This made me curious:
If Dragon Naturally Speaking (or other kinds of speech recognition software for
that matter) is so easy to use, fast and convenient, why would anybody bother
to type or use the mouse and keyboard and I would like to include Jaws users
here.
Jaws users then need Jaws to read to them, but why would we bother to handle
Excel, Word ect. If speech recognition is so easy?
Thanks.
Renette
