Cyberon recently introduced new speaker independent voice control phone software called "Voice Commander" being embedded in some phones primarily sold in Asia but is expected to eventually make it into more models in Europe and the US. If you find a phone with it, it may be a good choice also. There is also a speaker independent version called "Voice Dialer" offering fewer features than Voice Commander, however do not confuse it with their highly inferior speaker dependent "Voice Speed Dial" product.
