In fairness, it's not all that uncommon for Starbucks to be full of people talking into thin air to no one (blue tooth cell phone headsets). The (theoretical) advantage of voice recognition is that you can speak _much_ faster than you can type (except for a few exceptional cases) [1]. On the other hand, I don't think most people would be comfortable with speaking all day either, but things other than voice recognition could still replace the keyboard.
