C phone is a product by the Dictaphone Corporation and is a trademarked product.
DVI units are the generic versions of the C phone.
If you don't have a C phone, you can use a DVI in it's place. As with most trademark versus generic costs, DVI units are less expensive.

I had an account once where the woman told me I needed a C-phone so I quickly bought one on EBay. I could not log onto the dictation server for the life of me so she shipped me one of her units so I could start working ASAP. Turns out it was a DVI (a really cheap and CRAPPY version of a C-phone). When I told her "you said to get a C-phone" she said "I thought it was the same thing". Actually you can use a DVI in place of a C-phone MOST OF THE TIME but they aren't ALWAYS interchangeable.
Thank you! - momt

C-phones Nov 20, 2012I work for a hospital in California on my C-phone. Over the last week, ever since Comcast demanded that I add a second line because I was using over 5000 minutes of long distance, I have not been able to dial into the hospital. I can call the hospital number (long distance) but when I get the prompts asking for my ID and password, the system will not take my information from the C-phone. Yet, when I call the 800 number (for emergencies only), my C-phone worked ...

C-phone accounts normally involve using a professional grade word processor like Word or Wordperfect rather than an amateurish proprietary thing that resembles a word processor but often lacks the features of a professional word processor.Addition ...

What Type Of Ear Phones Are MTs Using Nowadays? Jul 09, 2014What type of ear phones are MTs using nowadays? I keep breaking my head set (the wires break inside and I have to hold them just right to use them). It never occurred to me that the 15,000 (slight exag) ear buds I have in the house (young kids from every electonic ever known to man) has a set. They seem to work fine. Is there any reason not to use ear buds versus my old style stethoscope ear phones? EBAY actually had an ad for Apple ear buds for $2.99 including free shipping! I cou ...
