A recent article in Newsbytes Japan mentions:

	Toshiba's Voice Recognition LSI -- Toshiba (Tokyo) has developed
	a powerful LSI for recognizing human speech.  This new product
	recognizes a variety of spoken sounds with 95% accuracy.
	Toshiba plans to use this LSI for a voice input system for its
	word processors.

I am interested in building a voice control system for my house, which
will be fully wired for sound.  Does anyone have further information
about this chip (e.g. press releases, other mentions in the press,
papers at conferences, or actual product numbers and specs)?
