    Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine
    can now listen for your commands.

    There are now 3 versions of CyberBuddy, two with Speech Recognition.
  • Version 2, the standard edition of CyberBuddy.
  • Version 3, in addition,  has all the features shown to the left, except for the telephone functions. This was done because some computers without a special modem and Windows TAPI installed will not work with the telephone functions.
  • Version 4 has all the features of versions 2 & 3 and, in addition, has Phone Dialing (with an internal Phone Book) and Caller ID! Ask CyberBuddy to Call a friend.

    Currently, Microsoft has only a U.S. English version of the speech recognition engine.


    • CyberBuddy Speech Recognition Versions are available on the CyberBuddy CD-ROM. The CD-ROM has all the files required to get Speech Recognition Installed. In addition, the CD has many other programs, characters and features. (Of course the CyberBuddy Standard version, as always,  is available for download.) The CyberBuddy CD-ROM now has a special Smart Installer Program that lets you choose which of the 3 available versions of CyberBuddy you wish to install. It then installs the required files for that version. You do not need to uninstall before upgrading. The smart installer will upgrade your version, and will leave your preferences intact.
