Hello,

The one AG site that I know of that is focusing on Access Grid
accessibility is the University of Wiscosin - Trace Center.  They have a
speech-to-text transcription service, but I think it is not completely
automatic.

Here's their contact information from the global AG node listing:

University of Wisconsin Trace R&D Center
1550 Engineering Drive
2107 Engineering Centers Bldg
Madison, WI 53706
http://trace.wisc.edu
Primary Contact: Joseph Schauer, schauer at trace.wisc.edu, 608-263-3882
Node Operator: Joseph Schauer, schauer at trace.wisc.edu, 608-263-3882
