[Bryon Kluesner]

I am an Athen member, but will not be able to go to CSUN - travel money
is frozen. Glad I completed the ATA certificate last year.

Is anyone using MacSpeech Dictate and can provide some feedback on the 
USB microphone that ships with the product?

I am curious as to the functionality and if you would recommend a 
different microphone with MacSpeech Dictate.  From the MacSpeech page, 
you can "upgrade" your mic to a VXi TalkPro series, xTag, or Samsontech 
Airline.  Wanted to get some feedback as to any real-world experiences 
before I commit.


Take care,
Sean

I will only be able to attend one day (hopefully)of  the exhibitors.  No
money for both AHG and CSUN this year.  I see the meeting is on a
Thursday, which is nice because I may be able to come that day and just
stay longer to attend the meeting, then drive back to San Diego.

Hi Ron and other Athen members,

If you are interested to webcast your meeting and/or allow other members
to
join you remotely and participate actively in your meeting, I will be
glad
to setup a TC Virtual room for this purpose.
Ron, at your end, you would probably need just your laptop and table-top
microphone, and a couple of speakers.

Please let me know.
Hadi
