Ok, I just have to share this, sorry for the tease and all, but this is going to be fracking awesome!
I have been plugging away at the Jebus's RRVoice Control app.... It is POWERFUL! This is the first (and only solutions) to control your music by voice:
"Play artist Lady GaGa"
"Play song Poker Face"
That's just the "tip of the iceberg! With screen selective commands, meaning you have a different voice command set per screen, you can assign commands to each screen in the skin. If this were not possible, all commands would always be active, and with 300-400 commands in the always active list, it would be FAR less accurate.
Here is one example:
Say "Song Information" and the ratings screen pop's up. The voice commands for that skin are then loaded into memory.
You can then say basically exactly what you see on the screen. Rate this song 3 stars, load 3 star playlists, lyrics, play album, and of course "done" to close the pop-up.
What makes this so nice, is that from ANYWHERE in the skin you can say "song Information" to get the pop-up.
Such is the case with the theme chooser. As it is now, you have to find and click the "settings" button, then choose "Themes" and then click on theme 1"
Now, with voice, from ANYWHERE in the skin you can now simply say "switch to theme 1" and font colors, background, bar colors all change on the screen you are currently on to what you have saved for theme 1
I have been altering some of the button text's in the skin, so most of the time what the button on the screen can be said as a voice command.
Lastly, the best part about Jebus's plugin, is all information for voice commands is saved in an ini file. So, when the skin is installed, all commands will work, and you will not have to make any changes to start using the skin with your voice.

I can not say enough good about that microphone! I have one here and the clarity is friggin' awesome! Without the noise reduction turned on, you can hear the computer fans, ceiling fan ect. Re-Activate the noise cancellation and the voice is perfectly clear, with no background noise.
I was using a standard desktop mic, and the voice recognition was not so good, as expected, even when talking right into it. When I switched to this mic, the accuracy increased to almost perfection! I have it placed a couple of feet away, and works perfectly.
Attached is a small .mp3 I just recorded with the Andrea microphone. The first half I am talking with the noise cancellation off, the second half is after turning on the noise cancellation.
