[MV] Microphones

[Andrew Taylor]

Hello,

Currently MacSpeech Dictate does not support Bluetooth microphones.
We need to do some work as well as determine what microphones might  
deliver sufficient quality for good recognition.
As always, no predictions on when this might be available.

But as indicated below, a couple non-Bluetooth wireless microphones  
have been tested and qualified for use, specifically the Revolabs and  
the Airline 77 from Samson Technologies. You can get more details from  
the MacSpeech web site (under microphones) as well as from the  
manufacturers web sites.

Thanks.
