Is there any way of getting Dragon Dictate to work on a NZ iphone?

Yes - I have it on my iPhone 3GS.

It was a free app downloaded from the US iTunes store. I had to register with the US store and did this by following instructions that I found and now haven't been able to locate. Essentially I used an US address and then used a coupon that app developers make available for people to try out their apps _ this got around having to have a US based credit card. There are web sites where you can obtain these "coupons".

Having created this account I now can log into the US store and down load any of the free apps.

Dragon Dictate works well - has no trouble with Kiwi accent and is surprisingly fast.

Hey thanks for that.
Already joined up at the US istore and downloaded the Dragon Dictate app but thats as far as I can get, still can't get it across to my phone.
I never used a coupon.
What have I done wrong??

The app for me was just transferred to my phone when I did a sync. Also has had a few updates since I first downloaded it and these have also just transferred on syncing iPhone with iTunes,
 
Another approach would be to download the dragon dictate app directly to your iPhone through the App store on your iPhone. You will need use your US store login to do this

Awesome. That worked perfectly.
As they say, Upstairs for thinking, downstairs for dancing Laughing 

Thanks
