There are many softwares for such purpose, some betters than other of course.
Which one may exactly be the best however, I'm not sure since it has been a while since I last tested one (must've been 6 years ago), but it worked pretty well back then so if anything the results only improved.
Anyway, one you'll probably want to look into is "Dragon NaturallySpeaking" from Nuance which seems to be the top of these programs out there these days. We're talking about something that may cost like $300 dollars however, so, it kind of inflated since back then when one of Phillips' programs was going on strong and it was relatively cheaper.
One way or another, the program seems to have worked nicely for people I know and that tried it. You do a training routine first so that the program adapts to your voice pattern and then you should be able to do most text writing without problems. When it comes to issuing commands however, like, deleting a word or so, it can get slightly tricky at times. Beyond that, functional and helpful for those who can't type fast (by nature, or accident).

Do You know any freeware that have a capabilty to type with voice. I dont really need many function or features, it just need to type what i said only. Because $300 it's a litle to much for me. Or do you know any other speech to type that more cheaper then that? But i still prefer a free ware thought :)
