USB headsets really do suck. They really do. It's just much much much better going the 3.5 mm headphone route. Really it's not that hard. Green and pink.

Anyway, JVC RX700 + Zalman clip-on mic. ~$50 total but infinately worth it and the best value ~$50 combo by a mile. It's $10, that's a takeaway....
