There was a thread about speech recognition on TidBITS Talk a while 
back.  Might be a good read for you.  http://www.tidbits.com/

The usual answer is There isn't any at least not anything very good.

IIRC even David Pogue, who writes a lot of Mac books, uses a Windows  
machine for dictation.


quoting http://www.davidpogue.com/FAQs.html#PowerSecretary

If you need speech recognition software, the Mac offers ViaVoice and  
iListen; neither is as good as Naturally Speaking or VoiceXpress on  
Windows. All of these modern programs let you speak CONTINUOUSLY into  
the mike (not -- with-- gaps--like--PowerSecretary) and transcribes  
what you're writing, at amazing speeds.

I saw MacSpeech demonstrated recently at a trade show and it looked 
pretty good. Comes with two microphones - one is high quality and they 
recommend it, the other seems to be okay.  http://macspeech.com/

Check ViaVoice from IBM. Not sure about the requirements, though, but they
have a version running on OS X...
