It seems that the other reviewers of the product fall into two camps - one set love the product and say it works very well, the others say that it doesn't work that well and is of novelty value. Maybe I can reconcile these viewpoints.
Via Voice does work and you can 'train' it to work at a good level in about thirty minutes. BUT, it appears that you need to train and use the product in a relatively noise-free environment for it to be effective. Those having difficulty with the product work in an office environment. Those using it in quieter places, such as myself, know that 1. It really does work, and 2. It saves time.

Although the idea is good this product is a long way off being a useful addition to your toolset. Voice recognition has still got a very long way to go if Via Voice is anything to go by. I followed the instructions explicitly and trained and retrained the software to recognise my voice diligently (I read it all the stories and added some of my own documents too), but to no avail. I'm lucky if it gets it right half of the time which is really no use at all. Don't buy this product for anything more than curiosity or something to play with as it's largely ineffective. Remember too, once you've got the wrapper off you will not be able to get your money back.

It took half an hour to train the program and then dictating 2 longish emails and correcting them before ViaVoice really demonstrated what it could do.
Now I can sit back and dictate away at my pace with only a few corrections now and then. It has truly changed the way I write emails and my blog on the Internet (although I "speak" that out in Word and then copy and paste it onto my blog).
I have noticed that it loses out on accuracy if there is a lot of noise around but if I just close the door that is soon remedied. I tried voice recognition before but found that if the computer does not have the right sound card or memory then the software just doesn't work. This is one case where you really have to check the fine print before buying, but you won't regret it!
