MacSpeech sends emails such as this out occasionally to its registered users to keep them informed of developments within the company. iLISTEN 1.6.6 RELEASED ----------------------------------- Just before the holidays we released iListen 1.6.6 to address a couple of issues some people were having with the software, most notably that a small portion of our users had trouble using our new registration system after upgrading to 1.6.6. If you have version 1.5.2 or later, the upgrade to 1.6.6 is free and can be downloaded from our either our main web site (www.macspeech.com) or our support web site (http://macspeech.crmhelp.net/?_a=downloads). If you have a version prior to 1.5.2, an upgrade is only $39.95 - but we have an even better deal for you (see below). WINTER SALE -------------------- GREAT DEAL#1 - Now is a great time to upgrade, since we have a limited number of CDs left over from Macworld. These CDs contain a full installer for iListen 1.6.6 as well as 10 ScriptPaks: MouseAnywhere, iChat, iCal, iDVD, iMovie, iPhoto, iTunes, GarageBand, Mail, and Safari. Normally, all these would sell for over $149, but we are making them available on a CD, with the full installer of iListen 1.6.6 for only $59 plus shipping and handling. You will need to have your Activation Code for your existing copy of iListen handy when you install from this CD. GREAT DEAL #2 - We also have a limited quantity of refurbished Olympus DM-1 digital voice recorders available. These sell brand new for $299, but we have them at the rock-bottom price of $179, which is the lowest price we could find anywhere. No other purchase is necessary. The Olympus DM-1 comes with a memory card that allows up to 11 hours of digital recording, or up to 8 hours of MP3 playback! With the DM-1 you can dictate while you are away from your computer and have it transcribed into text later. GREAT DEAL #3 - This is an unadvertised special just for existing iListen users: 20% off any Microphone purchase from our store. This would be a great time for you to get that second microphone for the office, or maybe your original microphone is just wearing out. It is also a great time to upgrade to the TalkPro or TalkPro Xpress - the finest microphones we sell. All you need to do is go to our store (www.macspeech.com/store/), put a microphone in your cart, and then enter "20-HEADSET" in the Coupon Code field when you check out. iLISTEN TRAINING VIDEO NOW AVAILABLE ------------------------------------------------------------- "Getting Started with iListen" has been a great success since we introduced it just before Christmas. Speech recognition expert Dan Newman takes you through the steps of installing iListen and getting the best use from it. At Macworld, many users asked us if the iListen is so hard to learn that it requires video training. The answer is no! iListen is very intuitive to learn, but some people are "visual learners" and benefit from seeing it in action, as opposed to reading about it in the User's Guide. We are very fortunate that Dan, who is best known for his video training for Dragon Naturally Speaking, chose to work with us on this project. You can download a sample video at . "Getting Started with iListen will normally sell for $29.95, but for a limited time you can purchase it for only $24.95 from our online store (www.macspeech.com/store/). NEW WORD 2004 SCRIPTPAK RELEASED ------------------------------------------------------------ It's finally here! The much-anticipated update to our Word X ScriptPak. This new ScriptPak was written from the ground up especially for the 2004 version of Microsoft Word and contains almost 400 commands (which is almost twice as many as the ScriptPak for Word X). The ScriptPak for Word 2004 is available immediately from our store (http://www.macspeech.com/store/) for only $29. NEW TECH SUPPORT SITE --------------------------------------- Have you tried our new Tech Support site? We recently put a lot of new content into our all new Knowledge Base, and the latest downloads are available there as well, including our new iListen Tutorial and Training Guide. Check it out at or by clicking the Support link in the top section of our home page. We hope you are enjoying iListen - and if you are one of those who have been meaning to try it again, now is a great time to do so. The software is better than ever, and we are now also providing more resources than ever to help you get up and running.
