Hey all, Looks like my ping sensor is not working so I need an alternative. I was hoping to use a web cam.

Hey! The Speech Recognition part of the EZB works better than ANY I have ever seen. Even better than Dragon Dictate, in my opinion. But, I want to ask you if there is a limit to the NUMBER of phrases you can put in the Speech Rec program. I notice that when I first start off, it works fine. But, after a while I loose those capabilities. It is just...
