"Speech To Text" App For Texting?

Has anyone come across a speech-to-text app that replaces the keyboard for texting? Sometimes it's inconvenient to use either the virtual or hardware keyboard to type because of fat fingers, or trying to type while walking.
Thanks!

Did you try a search? There are several threads on this.
The latest one is:

Works for speech texting. Varied reports on how the user interface works. For instance, I get no touchscreen response at all on my TP/stock rom. But my d-pad provides all the functionality I need.
