Speech Recognition IC

[tdbeng]

Does anyone know of an inexpensive speech recognition IC? I am working on a project that requires around 40 to 50 words to be recognized. It will interface to a microcontroller, so I can work w/ any type output. I have heard about Philips' "Hello IC", but could not find any datasheets about it on their website. Is this product out on the market, yet?

I have worked with speech recognition software, but never with circuitry. So if anyone has any experiences/stories about their projects using a speech-recognition IC, I'd be glad to hear them.

Thanks.

Here are a couple of sites to try.
The second site has a list of manufacturers you can research.
Hope it helps some.
