Hello Martin,

As an invalid with limited use of my hands, correction is difficult
for me, so therefore why it accuracy is very important. Given my
system - G4 PowerBook, 667 MHz, USB, 512 Mb RAM, running OS X 10.2.6 -
and my speech recognition software of choice - iListen 1.6 - which
would be the highest quality microphone that you could recommend which
would be available in Australia if possible?

best,
