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 3-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).

Comments: Key changes from the first generation include 1) a more sensitive microphone element and 2) changes in the circuit board that includes "declicking" algorithms to heighten further the immunity from external noise. We have extensively tested the second-generation electronics and found it to be truly amazing. Unlike any other product we know, it allows practical dictation from a distance up to 20 inches. In terms of accuracy and external noise rejection, this product will perform exactly like the 6-in-1. Please view the "product demo" link with the 6-in1 to get an idea of how the 3-in-1 works. This "third generation" table mike differs from the second generation unit only in have somewhat larger, more easily pushed buttons on the base. Functionally it is identical to the second generation 3-in-1 TableMike
An added bonus is that the Up/Down volume buttons can be reconfigured using the TableMike Configuration Utility to emulate up to six different keystrokes/hotkeys or Dragon commands.
