Dragon Dictate is one of the most useful apps for the iPhone and iPad I have seen for a while. While not without the odd irritation, it provides a valuable and very accurate alternative to voice memos and is certainly faster than using the iPhone keyboard.

With Dragon Dictation you can also update your Facebook status, send notes and reminders to yourself, or Tweet to the world….all using your voice. So when you’re on-the-go, stop typing and start speaking – from short text messages to longer email messages, and anything in between. For best result, speak calmly and clearly.

Available FREE from the Apple Store , this one is definitely worth a try
