I just downloaded a free Expander (FireFox).  I do not see any difference between it and using autocorrect/autotext in Word.  Can someone explain to me the difference? Also, has anyone used Dragon Naturally Speaking and "echo dictation?"  I am tempted to try this and see if it helps my production any.  Someone mentioned to me that they are transcribing over 350 lines an hour using this method.  If anyone does this, I would love to hear from you.  TIA
