USB microphones for voice recognition

[JasG]

Absolutely in love with my Rev C Air; it is my only computer and it is all I need.

But I may need to have surgery to remove a cyst (too much typing) below the index finger on my strong hand and I am thinking of trying Voice Recognition Software for the weeks I am recovering.

But alas no microphone jack. I never ever use a microphone for anything, so I don't know:

Is there such thing as a USB mic. Can anyone recommend one. Thanks.

no need; strait from the apple site: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/macbook_air under 'tech specs'

Audio

Analog audio output/headphone out (minijack)
Built-in mono speaker
Built-in omnidirectional microphone <===

I believe that the good voice recognition programs require a dedicated microphone, as opposed to the built in. That's one criticism of even the best, but I think that is the way it is.

Voice recognition software recommend these anyhow. I have a Logitech one and it works great with my MBA
