Pocket Dictate Voice Recorder for Windows CE

Dictate With Your Pocket PC or Smartphone

For ease of use, operation of the record and playback features is designed to closely mimic that of old style dictation recorders. For example, you record by holding down the record button on the side of your Pocket PC. Release the button to stop. To continue from where you were press it down again. You can also playback, rewind, insert or overwrite as required using the keys on the front.

This Windows CE voice recorder is designed to have all the features you need as easy to use as possible and reliable for day-to-day operation. If you install Pocket Dictate you will quickly find it will replace your old dictaphone and, by using the internet to send dictations, will improve the turnaround on typing.

Pocket Dictate is for Pocket PCs and Smartphones but another version is available for Palm OS devices called Palm Dictate. Please see Dictation Recorder for Palm OS for more information.
