The Dragon dictation app rocks!

So after my blackberry started having problems. I was really on the fence as to whether or not to get a Droid or get an iPhone. I figured either one I would have been happy with as it would have been a significant improvement but I really struggled with the decision. Ultimately I got the iPhone for two reasons. First, pretty much everything I listen to in the car is via iTunes and I wasn't too excited about carrying my Ipod in addition to my phone or finding a new system to keep track of music and podcasts. Second, my parents have been harping on me because they have iPhones and they wanted to be able to use face time to talk to my kids. So I have an iPhone now and in general I like it a lot. Certainly being able to use all of the foursquare features has been a lot of fun. I tried Angry Birds for the first time but didn't really see what all the fuss was about. But the application that I am absolutely most excited about use the Dragon dictation app. I have used Dragon dictation in the office but it never seemed to be more efficient than typing and using templates. But now that I can dictate on my phone and I can write e-mail and blog posts anywhere. This is totally awesome. And it is free! There are lots of times where I have an idea all are want to send a quick e-mail but I am in the car and really try not to text or e-mail in the car. What is most stunning is how accurate the dictation is and usually can be sent with very very minimal editing. Neat stuff!
