Palm Zire 72

I really liked using the Zire 72. I had never used a palm quite like it before. I found that I really needed to practice how to write letters. There is a guide on the back to the palm that helped a lot, especially whenever I was trying to write a S and it would make a G. It was fun to write on the screen and have the palm recognize what I was writing; maybe I’m just easily amused. Oh well. I also found that it was a whole lot easier to use the wireless keyboard to enter my calendar and anything that was more than a couple of words. I never really knew that you could do so much with a palm, besides games.

This picture was taken with the camera on the Zire 72 Palm. It was pretty neat to have a palm that has a camera.


Dragon SpeakingNaturally

I really enjoy using Dragon. It is a lot easier than using the speech recognition on the Windows XP. Dragon is a more efficient tool when it comes to dictating. I am really thinking about buying the software for myself and using it for papers and such. The only thing that I don't really like about Dragon is the time it takes to update your file after you have trained.

I was thinking about buying Dragon for my own personal use, but it is a little too expensive for me. I guess I will just have to stick with Windows XP.
