Headset Recommendation for Skype?

jwb1

Farily mundane query...can any recommend a particular headset/microphone for use with Skype? Or, maybe, tell me the models/suppliers to absolutely avoid! Would be good to get a sense for possible price range too.

As for skype compatable handsets, I know you can get a selection of them from skype.com but there's a few on OCuk

why all the messing with headphones and mics? Get a phone suitable for the job like this one.

should be available this side of the pond soon.
Or better still get a Blueface.ie account.

Because headsets allow you to use your hands while talking and are cheaper as a general rule?
