Hi
There are two options that I know of:
1. ScanSoft: ViaVoice (Made by the same people as Dragon)
2. MacSpeech: iListen
From discussions I have had iListen seems to be the most accurate of the
two.

Dear all
I am working with a client, who has Rheumatoid Arthritis. Among other things
she tried Naturally Speaking Version 8 and Penfriend and both were very
useful.
However, she has a Mac and these software packages are not available for Mac
systems as far as I am aware.
She has tried Mac's VAS several years ago, but was not impressed.
Can anybody help please.
Nelly
