SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 31, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Nuance Communications, Inc. /quotes/zigman/98548/quotes/nls/nuan NUAN +0.88% today announced the new Dragon for Salesforce app for iPhone and iPad that lets Salesforce users quickly and easily speak updates into their Salesforce CRM and Salesforce Chatter accounts.
