Yup. Sphinx2. Working with it and I have it running on my system. I need 
to clean it up and get it packaged up for MH distribution. I like it, 
and it works for me. I've never even looked at the footprint of it to know.

Headsets are definitely great as the closer to your mouth as compared to 
the ambient noise source, the better. A good quality microphone will do 
nicely from two feet away. I wouldn't recommend a simple cheapo mic as 
it will leave so much to be desired. You will get interference from the 
radio or MP3 player, so it would be best if there was an easy way to 
mute them or the like. I have used mine to control my TV tuner card and 
MP3 player with rather good results, but that will cause problems for 
recognition.
