I haven't seen any other recommendations for voice recognition microphones to use other than the Logitech one, so I wanted to reply and let you guys know what I use.
I use the "Omnidirectional Boundary Microphone" from Radio Shack (Part Number 33-3022). It's stellar. It's a little bulky, and requires a button-size battery when in use, but I love it. It costs $39.99 or so.
I have tried a ton of condensor based microphones (like the Sony phones you can buy at Fry's for $99 and up). They're junk. I never got them to work with a computer, ever.
I mainly started using these Radio Shack (I hate that store nowadays, never shop there) ones for home automation stuff, and it works great in huge rooms in a house. One room of mine is like 36x18' and I can command the computer from anywhere in it. It's really amazing.
Once you've tried all the more expensive solutions, you'll agree with me.
I like the computer desktop mics sometimes, but they require you to be really close to it for it to work. With my boundary mic, anyone in the car could talk to it. I have them planted all over my house too
Now... If I can only figure out how to get Radio Shack to pay me for this "plug"
