Is it possible to use speech to text on the iPhone 4. I have a 4S an there is a microphone on my keyboard. My wife has a 4 but there is no keyboard. Any help would be appreciated. .

Depends on what you want to do. Dragon Dictation and Vlingo work great. I use Vlingo for text messages and emails. You can set it up to begin as you open the app and recognize end of speech. Fewer steps than Dragon. Oh, and I use Vlingo to make calls, added bonus.

If you still have iOS 5.0.1 on the iPhone 4. Jailbreak it with redsnow and use a proxy server with Spire. I have the microphone on the keyboard on my iPhone 4 but I believe you need Spire/Siri or Siri dictation to have it appear there. Otherwise your outta luck.

Those aren't really what I am looking for. I am really trying to add a microphone to the apple keyboard.

I don't believe there's an official app that would do exactly that, as it would mimic the functionality of Siri, even though that isn't available for the 4.
