Re: Speech Recognition for Coding

["Peter Dow" <pcdow@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dave,

I'll throw in my two cents just in case it helps. I found it interesting
that I used a keyboard for years without a problem until mice came along. My
mouse wrist also sometimes feels like carpal tunnel is headed my way. My
solution is to switch around a lot -- use keyboard shortcuts to avoid the
mouse, use a Wacom tablet, switch mouse hands, take breaks and do something
else with the hand, etc.

HTH,
