 A waste of money, 2008-07-26
I bought this item for a Christmas gift for my son. A total waste of money. He had difficulty downloading and no help for MAC. I keep asking him why he wastes his time and money on MAC products but....
The worse part of this is that it could not be returned. I'll never buy another MAC product without assurance that it can be returned for a full refund.

 iLove iListen, 2007-08-12
I've been using iListen for almost 10 years now. They've been continually improving it & it is really a great speech recognition product. I'm disabled & learned to use it expecting I'd lose control of my hands. While I still have use of them, it is a huge energy saver. It is great whether you have a disability or just need dictation software.
I can tell you it is equally important to buy a good mic/headset or other mic setup for it...[...] This is true of any application where you input audio into the computer.

 Useful online information helps a lot, 2007-07-11
It works with Mac, which makes all the difference to me. I appreciate that it works with MS Office programs, since I do all my text work in WORD and am able to dictate directly into a WORD file, then pick up where I left off the next time. It does make a great difference if you are NOT using a tested and approved microphone, and there are some to specifically avoid. The MacSpeech company Knowledge Base is very helpful on this and other issues. Also, there is a useful, polite, honest Q/A online thread at the About This Particular Macintosh review of iListen with Chuck Rogers from MacSpeech.

not what I wanted to hear, 2007-07-07
I don't have the product (had to add a star value to enter this comment so I went in the middle) but these reviews were not what I wanted to hear. I recently switched over to Mac because I gave up on trying to keep my PC running, error, virus and spyware free - which seemed to be impossible. The mac has been great for over a year now but the one thing I miss from the pc was Dragon Dictation - I was happy with that program. Very accurate, wrote way faster than I could ever type and spelling was 99% accurate except for some words that sound the same but have different meanings.
I was hoping to get a similar program for the Mac but after reading reviews for this and ViaVoice, I don't know.

Ilisten by Macspeech, 2007-06-04
I purchased Ilisten 1.7 for medical transcription for Mac. I was very disappointed in the reproduction after several hours of training. It was no better then 80% accurate under the best circumstances. I can not even recommend this product for even general use like letters, email, ect. It was horrible at transcribing medical terminology especially when importing via a dictaphone.
