As we all talk to ourselves, it does also make sense to talk to your PC - no swearing though, tutting or sighing !!!

Tim has been using it for a few months, ALWAYS with the MP3's playing LOUDLY on his computer, me walking in and yelling at him to turn down that racket, etc. It never picks up any of that.
He uses a headset with mic and earphones, so maybe his close proximity to the mic is why it doesn't pick up outside sounds? I'm thinking of putting it on my laptop. It has the built-in mic, so that may be less likely to filter out noise. It's all a grand experiment. |

I hope nobody here wants to be Ernest.
But if for some reason someone wants to be Ernest, we can make a new movie. Ernest buys an electronic eBook reader |

Probably a Gen3 so the screen can mysteriously break and he can go on all kinds of wild adventures trying to contact someone at Bookeen to get it fixed and then when they tell him he broke it and has to pay, he'll have more wacky adventures trying to get Bookeen to fess up that it's a flaw in the Gen3 and not his fault.

Ernest: Hey Vern! Which reader should I get?
Vern: Why not ask HarryT over there? Ernest: Hey HarryT! Which reader should I get? HarryT: Get a Bookeen Cybook Gen3. It will display Mobipocket eBook the best. Ernest: Oky doky! 3 weeks later.... Ernest: Gosh darn the screen just broke! Now I'll have to contact Bookeen to let them know so I can get an RMA number to send it in so they can fix it under warranty. 3 more weeks.... Ernest: Bookeen has not gotten back to me about the broken Gen3. I'll have to have some wild wacky adventures trying to get someone to respond to my emails. |

Well I just tried out Macspeech Dictate It's so awful I can't even begin to tell you. I can type at 70-100wpm, using this software I might get 5wmp (and three of them wrong).
