Try FlashType, it works just like Shorthand but is half the price.
see link below
I use Shorthand. It works great in there. sm
The Scribe platform is easy to use once you are used to it. My lines have doubled in the past two months. I use Shorthand for EVERYTHING.

Go to www.pcShorthand.com. There is a trial version.
I use ShortHand with my ExText. Works great! nm

How frustrating! Maybe you could offer to charge them half price, but
I would not let them get away with taking advantage of you. I know you need the job, but it's not fair for them to expect you to spend all that time (especially over a holiday weekend) and effort for nothing. Offering to only charge them half price at least gives you something for your time and also offers them a break. It was their mistake - not yours but halfing it with them will hopefully show them that they are willing to work with them on it but also let them know you're not a push-over that they can take advantage of.

Good luck!
Cox offers a "basic" cable internet; it's the same and half the price as the other one they
I pay $25 a month for it instead of the $50. It's very fast!
{@KEY BkSp}-pack-per-year is for Shorthand. Using the semicolon works with both Shorthand and

;yo = -year-old


;py= -pack-year


etc...


No, there are absolutely no differences between Shorthand and Speedtype except the price.

MTStars FlashType is also just like Shorthand only cheaper in price.
all Windows operating systems and works with most any Windows based application.  You can download a free trial at the link below.
Speedtype is retail version of Shorthand at a much higher price.

I am happy with mine...the price was right and it works just fine. No need for pricey laptops IMO.

Great price ... does it come in
colors other than white? Laser printer quality? Or just ink jet quality? My client used to use sticky paper but decided after a couple of years it was not cost effective and switched to regular paper. They might be interested in switching back at this price. Thanks in advance!
Great price if you have a Mac
but I have XP. I wonder if it's the same program for both. Thanks for the update though! I used it last night and it's a pretty nice program. Again, thanks!
Shorthand works.
email me if you need any more info
ShortHand works just like that. $100. And you can try it out first.

Shorthand works wonderfully with DQS
xx
Shorthand, I believe works in all Windows
programs.  It works in my email, etc. so should work in Works also
Shorthand is by far the best expander and works with everything. nm

ShortHand is up to version 9, at least, now, as it's what I have. Maybe v.10 is in the works?? nm
s
Shorthand works with Mysis
Haven't tried any others but I use SH with it.
Yes, Shorthand works with Meditech.

I have only worked in one version of Meditech, Meditech Magic, and it is easy to use.  There are other versions, though.  I'm sure they are easy also. 


Just make sure you get a list of what the function keys do in your version.


Shorthand works everywhere in Windows.
Can't speak for that platform specifically... but ShortHand for Windows works everywhere, including e-mail, instant messaging, and every other place that you type. They even have a 30-day free trial so you can download and test it out before laying out the $$.
Try opening up ShortHand before log in. Works with other systems like that. nm

FlashType works just like ShortHand except is cheaper.

Use ExText for 1 job. Love it! Works with my ShortHand. Wish they all used it! nm

Shorthand works for me on message boards. nm

MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and is $59.95.
see link below
Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.
nm
It is an older DOS-type environment - works well with Shorthand. sm
Lots of menus, especially in radiology, but ShortHand helps you get through them very quickly is you write macros to just stop where you need to.

It can be very productive with good line counts if you are paid by the line.

Personally, I loved it, but that was because I did very well with our incentive program on it.

MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and costs less.
It also works on Vista.  See link below.
FlashType works much like Shorthand, is cheaper, & significantly increases your

I use Shorthand for Windows and love it. I have found it works well with most every program. SM

I have used with Word and Word Perfect.  I have used it with Meditech and Cerner.  I have used it with RadNet and StarNavigator for Radiology.  I can use it with my email applications and on the internet if I choose.  If the Expander is open and running, you can use it with any and every window program you use.


I was really simple to learn to use too.  Very user friendly.


FlashType is cheaper and works equally as well as Shorthand and has a free demo.

You should not be having that problem, Shorthand works "ouside any program." Contact Shorthan

The price of gasoline is reflected in the price of goods. Having said that, one item
higher, MOMENTARILY, than Walmart, does not really make a case against Walmart. You want to make Walmart a bad guy because they don't have a shopper out there matching the grocery stores' price so be it. But MOST people I know shop at Walmart for lower groceries prices AS A WHOLE, and that is what makes Walmart successful. So buy your cheaper Bounty towels at your grocery store if that makes you happy. Your grocery store HAS TO MAKE MONEY and they will get you on something else. It is the retail law. Walmart will not be successful with higher prices than the grocery store. They aim to succeed. They have been sucessful in undercutting other stores. Your Bounty towels will not bring down the Walmart empire but it may cause you to shop at your grocery store where they will charge you more on other items to stay in business. Quit the knee-jerk responses. If you don't like Walmart and don't want to shop there that's all well and good. If you don't shop there because of Bounty towels, well that's just crazy.
You can download Shorthand, choose the "capitalize first letter" option. SH works with ExText

whatever works for you, that's great, and what works for me is great too
,
works great for me. nm

great when it works
We live in the midwest and with wind, rain, etc., the picture would die. One night we were under a tornado warning and watching the Weather Channel and it just went fuzzy.
Yes and yes it works great! nm
x
Well if it works for you that's great!
I've never tried it myself, but might just out of curiosity.  : )
MetaboLife works great for me! nm
x
Works great for smoothies too! nm
x
it works great for a lot of people, but
be aware that as with most medications it starts to wear off, so if it works for you, I would say go for it and don't dilly dally around with it, because one day it will not work for you, at least that is what happened to me years ago.
you have to really, really want to quit..then it works great.

I have a Belkin and it works great.

My Linksys works great!!!
I just switched to Linksys about six months ago and it works wonderfully.
Voange works great for me! nm
d
Same here Linksys also. Works great..sm
and have never had any problems with it. I use it for a laptop and have a hard wired desktop pc. My daughter also runs off the Linksys and has had no problems.
Works great! Better than Vonage. SM
I found that with Vonage there was a lag when I would rewind or fast forward in a dictation.  Drove me batty.  Switched to Mediacom phone and it works great.  No lag, clear as a bell.
I should add it works great with the fax machine too!
With Vonage I could never send or receive faxes.  I kept getting "poor line quality" error messages on my fax machine. 
I use MagicJack & it works great. nm
