More and more people prefer to work, walk and talk without having to worry about any headset wires or cords. This bundle from Nuance enables people to dictate into their PC while away from their desk. Without headset cables to worry about, they can perform simultaneous tasks and simply dictate while filing documents or grabbing a coffee.”
