A Google search for Linux voice recognition mentions IBM's ViaVoice a lot.

Although Java is mentioned, apparently that is for the API. The actual
voice processing is done in compiled code, therefore IBM would have to
compile a version for the iPAQ.

There also was a Slashdot discussion about TrollTech adding ViaVoice to
Qt. I don't know if any embedded versions are planned.

Naturally Speaking is now by ScanSoft.

ScanSoft does have voice recognition for some embedded machines,
although not for the StrongArm processors:
