Nuance's Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9, a desktop speech technology program that gives you the ability to talk to your PC to create Microsoft Office documents, has just gone wireless.

The wireless version comes complete with a Plantronics CS60 wireless headset (although you can use your own).

This CS60 has a range of 100 metres, so rather than being tied to your desk, you can wander about the room or office, or dictate while relaxing in your favourite chair; unleashed from your desk, making it easier to unleash your creativity.

Nuance describe this new bundled version as the ultimate software for those who need to create documents but can't bear sitting at a desk every time they need to do so.

The software supports almost all Windows applications and instantly turns the natural voice into text or commands at speeds up to a claimed 160 words per minute with accuracy levels that can reach 99% - which is faster and more precise than typing.

The price for this new version is £199.99, available now.
