Voice recognition should be fine in no time at all.

It's not just about dictating text and having the computer type it.
That's going to be reasonably fast, once one has the computer
"trained" to recognize one's voice.
However, there are many things one can do on a computer via mouse
and/or keyboard in much less time than it would take you to tell the
computer how to do it using your voice. Various CAD and desktop
publishing applications come to mind.
User interfaces are very important. Personally, I find
touchpads to be very awkward. Many of my mouse actions are
point-and-click. With a mouse, it is simple. With a touchpad, I
have to move my finger around and then move it around to click the
button. (Due to my dry hands, clicking on the pad is not
reliable. I have actually caused clicks on my touchpad when I was
not touching the touchpad but had my finger just above.)
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
