One Voice's Media Center Communicator offers voice commands for MCE

Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

There are a lot of programs that claim to allow you to control your PC with voice commands (our experience with them hasn't been too good; maybe it's that Noo Yawk accent), but One Voice's $150 Media Center Communicator looks like it may be the first one designed to work specifically with Windows XP Media Center Edition. If it works as advertised, it could make tasks like changing channels or switching tracks even easier. We do worry, though, about how it'll interpret some of the things we say to our TV sets when we're, say, watching a football game or a presidential press conference.
