This is a fantastic project, I have most of the parts list available, i was wondering if i could use the lcd screen from one of my dead cellphones for this as well or would i need a different type of lcd? would love to have more detailed instructions available too if there's a link to a more detailed instructable out there can you post it?

whats a good FREE voice recognition program

[fuzvulf]

If you have windows Vista you may already have it. simply enter "voice recognition" in the search bar in the start menu. It functions okay. It does need to say "what are you doing Dave? and then start singing Daisy, Daisy whenever you shut down the computer though. >_<

[moesboy]

the daisy part is a given and no I don't have vista
