Concerning the WordPerfect bundling.  The CD versions of WordPerfect and 
PerfectOffice will be bundled with DragonDictate Talk->To which is a 
version of DragonDictate which does not include dictation capability 
(command and control only).  You can then upgrade to a 5,000 word 
dictation product (DragonDictate Starter Edition) through WordPerfect.

You can upgrade to a 5,000 or 30,000 or 60,000 word product through any 
certified Dragon reseller.
