[senit] Voice recognition

I've been asked about speech recognition as a means for a student to
'write up their work at home'.
Has anything happened recently to suggest that the panacea has finally
arrived?
I know Wrawickshire DISCS ran a project but I can't find any info on
their site.
Becta doesn't offer anything of note.
Has anyone successfully used any systems with mainstream secondary aged
pupils?
Any suggestions please folks, eother of research to read or first hand
experience?

Thanks
Oh yes and is there any corelation between pushy parents who think ICT
is THE solution and disinterested students?
