Does anyone know of any units developed as replacements for keyboards
so that people can simply talk to them rather than typing? 

I know this is rather "sci-fi"ish, but I wonder if anything like this
is actually being developed in a usable state.  It would make a great
communication tool for the handicapped.

Please respond via E-mail....

Thanks in advance.
