Just trying to convince myself that was what I should get. It's nice to know I'm not the only one around on a Saturday night! Thanks again.

Which model
did you purchase? Did you get them at the Bose site? If so, they told me there is a 30-day time period in which you can return them if you are not satisfied. They are just too pricey if they don't get the job done!
Maybe it is just the particular model/brand
I have had I believe three Fantoms now (first one so heavy so bought second one years later, then ran over big screw and broke the bar on the bottom of the second one). I have the HEPA filters and have never had to do anything with them - not even change them as mine have a button that is suppose to pop up to tell you when it needs to be replaced. I have probably owned these over the past 10 years or more.
You are right, emptying the cannister can be a little messy - I do what you do and go outside, use a plastic grocery bag to empty it in (or better yet have husband do it) as I, too, have severe allergies.
If I had to choose though, I would still go bagless as I hated changing and buying the bags and once they got about half full you didn't get the suction like you do with an empty bag/cannister.
I am not familiar with the type you have where you have to clean the filter. Ugh.
I have an older model sm
Can't use it while I'm typing. If I crank the massage action up so that my back feels good, then there is too much vibration and I literally cannot focus on the monitor. I am not sure if the newer models are like this or not.
There's a quota of so many per each model for that

Well...get a late model
I would go to the different stores and website to find one that is new but last years model if you don't want Vista. They are starting to be preinstalled.
Personally, I love my Gateway and they have all american customer service and tech support. It is nice to call and talk to someone that can understand me the first time! They have been very prompt and understand that my system is important for work. I have only had one minor issue which was probably me and not the computer.
Actually, I don't know if your model of footpedal is going to work or not.

IBM model M-15 split ergonomic
I bought one of these keyboards from www.clickykeyboards.com
Fully adjustable for any typing angles like Goldtouch, but much better key feel.
Priceless keyboard that I hope to use for next 20 years.
I can't remember the exact model, but.....
We go the one that would go into a waterbed frame (as that is what we have), but it wil also go onto a regular frame. We also got a king size(it is great. We also chose the dual chamber model (I don't think it is any more expensive) so that I can set my number and my husband can set his. We have a friend who only got the single chamber and when his wife gets in or out of bed the number isn't the same any more. So I would highly recommend the dual chamber if you share a bed. As far as the exact model number I can't remember...but with it having to fit into the waterbed frame and wanting a King there was only 1 model number to choose from and I think it was the 5000. Good luck...you will absolutely love this bed!
A4tech anti-RSI model KB(s)-8
I've tried all the expensive ergonomic keyboards mentioned here in the past and never found one I liked. Back in the day, Keytronics made a great keyboard (some 15 or 20 years ago) but they aren't the same now. I've been using this A4tech anti-RSI KB(S)-8 for a couple of years and it is fantastic. I heard about it on another board and thought, how can it be that great when it's only $20? But it really is the best keyboard I've owned in 20 years. Plus you can program some of the keys to open programs or perform tasks, even keystrokes. The keyboard comes with a wrist rest, which is completely useless to me, but it comes off easily so that's not a problem.
Go online and put in your make and model.....

I believe your foot pedal has to be a DVI model

Which model? Not all have lock keys. sm
I have a Logitech cordless that doesn't have lock keys. Did you try to Google your model to see if somebody else has had the same problem?
I was thinking along that line when there's no role model
Rich kids are raised by nannies, butlers, au pairs, tutors. Parents are hardly there to give them morals. They learn from the streets and the streets are pretty skanky these days.
You're welcome. You can find Model M's on eBay
I think I'd go with clickykeyboards.com for their trustworthiness and service and all. You can get some in the $35-40 range there. (Check to be sure if it has a ps/2 connector, unless you have an AT/5-pin inlet on your computer. You can buy an AT to ps/2 adaptor from them or at most office supply stores fairly easily, though.)
I think you'll be pleased. Much as I liked my NMB, I wouldn't ever buy even a vintage/used one of those since I just don't think that model and brand has much longevity, apparently.

Belkin Ergonomic, Model # F8E208
If you Google it, you will come up with tons of places to buy it from. I bought mine at Target for 30 bucks, well worth it and more.
does anyone know how to hook a Lanier model LX231(sm)
with the LX-231 adapter to the power supply and flat modem box? I'm confused as to where all the cords go. On the adapter there are three cords. One says station (that I assume goes to the actual transcription box with the key pad on it), another cord that goes to the power supply and another that says it goes to the telephone line. I'm not sure where all the cords go in relation to the modem. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? TIA
What model is the unit? I used one a long time ago..sm
However, the doctors called into it to dictate. There was a hard drive with it that was connected to phone line. I would log in on the machine and pick up the jobs to transcribe. Is it similar to that? Or is this something else? There is also a Philips call-in station that hooks to phone line, but that's only for the docs to call and dictate.
How are you using the Philips to get work from your friend, that's what I don't understand? Does the friend have the same system? Just trying to figure out the setup and how to be more helpful. I know I once tried to use the Philips call-in to re-record dictation from a microcassette and it wouldn't recognize it and just timed out. It would only accept an actual voice, and that was using landline phone, so I think they do have certain parameters set up. It might be that the Vonage isn't compatible. Maybe you could call a Philips tech support person and ask. There's a tech number in the manual and on their website.

Hmm. I thought Unicomp made keyboards similar to the IBM Model M
That was the old clackity clack buckling spring keyboard. You get a real IBM keyboard on ebay or clickykeyboards fairly cheap. The key markings are part of the key itself and never wear out. They are exceptionally NOISY though and you need a special USB converter to make it work with a USB connection. The Omni is a mechanical keyswitch which I think is even better than the buckling spring, just like the poster who posted about it. Those key markings never wear out either. Mechanical keyboards have a wonderful touch but they don't make very many any more. Too expensive to produce and instead we have the $10-20 dollar rubber dome "quiet" keyboards that feel like typing on a wet sponge. Some people though like that wet sponge feel but I think they are slower keyboards and harder to type on. Just a preference even though they are noiser. And for some it does not matter how spongy or squashy the keys are as long as the keyboard is quiet they are happy. Different strokes I guess.
Infinity
I use an Infinity USB. Mine doesn't seem that way, but I've used it a long long time. Maybe it's just because your pedal is new? I can vaguely remember when I started using the one I use now thinking the same thing you're saying, however.
i just use an infinity one.

Infinity wav pedal
The Infinity wav pedal comes in three configurations, IN-USB-1, IN-BMG (15 pin) & IN-DB9 (9pin).
What wav player program are you using, Express Scribe?
Have you upgraded your operating system?

I have Infinity pedals
I have two Infinity foot pedals and just ordered a new one recently for my laptop, a USB from Jay Vance (who posts on another MT Forum). It was $79 including shipping and I had it in about three business days. I was very pleased with the price and his service. You may contact him at: info@vancedigital.com
I have an old Infinity that still works but needs to be sprayed with silicone I think as it squeaks after many years of use but it still works. :)
Mine is an Infinity
and has worked with everything I have tried it with
I like my Infinity pedals. nm

Infinity pedal
I use the same pedal I used with DQS with MQ. It's Infinity. If you want the specifics, I can look them up. In Emdat you will have to do a pedal wizard thing to get it going. I thought it wasn't "taking" because it was so simply. I was doing and then undoing what I'd did. When it says to press the pedal. You simply step on an off of it and not keeping holding it down, which is what I also did and others have done I believe. In other words, complicating an easy task which I do!
The pedal is Infinity IN-USB-1.
The headphone, and I have tried several, plugs into the little audio hole on the computer. The OS is XP. I hope that covers it.
Thanks
I use an Infinity USB with version 8 - nm

99% of the pedals are made my Infinity
and look alike, though the wiring configuration can be very different. I currently had 3 pedals and 2 will work with ExpressScribe, but they won't work with other software programs as they are wired to work with proprietary software.
My foot pedal says Infinity on it. (sm)
A lot of people refer to a wave foot player as any basically any pedal, but there is an actual brand that is a WAVpedal. You can use Google and find a lot of answers that way.
Infinity or what kind of pedal??
How do you know what kind of pedal you have? I see no markings on mine to identify it. I see you all talking all the time about them, but don't know what I have except that it hooks into a USB port. ?? Can you tell me how to identify? Thanks.
Can anyone help with Infinity foot pedal??
Help! Just bought a used infinity foot pedal, works fine with Express Scribe but can't figure out how to get it to work with DSS. I don't have a serial port that it will fit into in my computer, but have it plugged in with an adapter/USB plug. I have Olympus DSS player 2002 software installed on my computer and tried to play an old file and it would not work. I need to be able to play wav files. Help!
Infinity USB pedal is a common one. See that and others

Infinity Foot Pedal
I have a brand new Infinity foot pedal I have never used if you are needing one. Please write me back. Thanks Mary
Infinity Foot Pedal
Can someone please help!! I can't seem to program my foot pedal for back space or fast forward. I can use the "F" keys but would like to use the pedal only. No matter where I press all I get is current dictation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
editscript/infinity footpedal
Has anyone been successful in using the Infinity USB footpedal with editscript? If so, could you outline the steps to do it?
Thanks a ton!
have never been able to get my Infinity pedal to work...
with Express Scribe. It's a pain, but I've just used the manual controls.
Should have added below that my Infinity USB pedal works with it as well.
will Infinity pedal work with Inscribe?
I'm switching companies and foot pedals and don't understand. I'll be using Emdat-Inscribe, and the pedal I have is an Infinity USB1. Are these compatible? I've done what it says to do on the site for other pedals and it still won't work. Does anyone know if this Inifinity foot pedal will work with Inscribe?
I use an Infinity and it works fine with ExpressScribe. (nm)

Infinity makes probably 95% of the foot pedals
used, even if sold under a different name. I don't know if there is one made to be compatible with what you have, but you could Google foot pedals for your particular model.
Thanks! I've been told Infinity works with (sm)
the new platform I will be working on, I just needed to make sure it would work with my Start-Stop. I really did not want to have to get a new media player as well. Thanks again!
Does your Infinity pedal work with DocQscribe?
Just wondering if your Infinity foot pedal works in DocQscribe? Does it automatically recognise it?
My friend has a footpedal that a former employee of Medquist was using, and went to use it as a new employee with MedQuist and it won't work now. It works in Express Scribe perfectly. MedQuist says you have to rent one from them and they won't "troubleshoot" problems with the pedal since it wasn't purchased through them......(even though it was by this former employee).
Any suggestions?
An Infinity 3-button pedal will do just about everything. Your headset
s
No matter who sells them Infinity makes
about 99% of the foot pedals, at least the kind you hook to your computer. The foot pedal is different, thicker, wired differently, and there will be an adjustment period. You might try loosening the screws up just a tiny, tiny bit and see if that makes a difference. I have no problem with play but the FF and rewind pedals can be stiff, but I rarely use either one.
There have been some suggestions about putting a folded up towel up against the pack of your pedal so it is thicker than the pedal and that you push down onto the pedal, but your heel is padded from the towel. I've never tried it so can't say how it works, but I just have the tips of the toes my pedal and it works fine.
I have the Infinity, have found it compatible with just about everything, it is great!.....NM

Food pedal, hee hee. Mine's an Infinity...
I've used a Dictaphone foot pedal, too, but it came with the Dictaphone. Try searching on E-bay for foot pedals or Infinity foot pedals.
