With regard to competitors it is my understanding that L&H has very few with regard to existing tech. (check out www.lhs.com). They will however have competition with new continous speech rec. where they have $0 in revenue today. These competitors are IBM and Dragon. MSFT already picked L&H because of their existing products, new products in pipeline, mulitilingual expertise, mgmt, etc. It is important to remember how little continous speech rec. provides to top- and bottom-line today -$0. They get their revenues from many other businesses and partners.
