We give the entire SpeechWare TableMike series our "Best in Class" award. While there are important functionality differences between the 3 models, they all share characteristics that set them apart from all other table-mounted microphones on the market, including: 1) Auto-gain technology allowing automatic mic volume adjustments when changing distance from the mic, 2) outstanding digital signal processing to eliminate noise, 3) unique ability to use this microphone from distances between 10 and 20 inches and 4) a highly intuitive and functional"TableMike Configuration Application" which allows simple programming of accessory buttons.
Push Button Simplicity! All of our current generation SpeechWare TableMikes feature newly designed push-buttons which are large, visible and respond to a gentle push. In addition, the newly released "TableMike Configuration Utility" allows programming of the two volume buttons to affect up to six actions including initiating Dragon commands, Dragon Hotkeys, and emulation of computer key-strokes in all Windows applications, including versions of Dragon.
The 9-in-1 TableMike
This is the "third generation" TableMike from SpeechWare and the result of several years of the best Belgian engineering and input from a number experienced speech recognition users/resellers including Chuck Runquist, Larry Allen, Lunis Orcutt and Speech Recognition Solutions. Unique to this most recent build of the TableMike is larger, more easily pushed buttons which allow very simple use of the volume buttons with the TableMike Configuration Utility (available as free download).

The 9-in-1 is the "Grande" of the TableMike series and comes with virtually every feature you could imagine or desire in a table-mounted microphone. It doesn't work any better than the 3-in-1 and 6-in-1 in terms of use with Dragon, but excels in terms of added features and the very long boom.
The 9-in-1 has all of the features of the 3-in-1 and 6-in-1 plus:
- A unique telescoping boom which can vary from 21 to 25.5 inches (longest in the industry) with two points of articulation
- Two accessory USB ports
- An integrated SD/SDHC/MMC/MS/MSPro/MSPro-HG card reader

Comments: We have been testing and selling the 9-in-1 for many months now and find it to be every bit the microphone we expected. In terms of functioning, it works identically to the 3-in-1 and 6-in-1 as far as accuracy and external noise rejection. The big advantages are the extra USB port for the optional high-definition (HD) Webcam or any other USB peripheral, a universal and very practical Flash memory reader for quick transfer (and transcription) of your recordings, and the telescoping boom which allows placement of the base a fair distance away.
Warranty: 1 year (extension to 2 years if you register the product)
