PS how much is it? and whats the garrentee?
I have an older version and will probably upgrade. Yes it works, if you are willing to devote time training it to understand you, and you learning to annuncate the same way each time. It's a lot of work to set up just for casual use IMO, but it does work and also has a very active support forum.
