Re: Microphone problem (need help to choose)

by David Fairbrother <simmastacopter@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 22, 2006 at 12:33 PM

have a look at the Logitech Gaming headsets. i have a set, hasn't done 
me wrong in Battlefield 2. the cord on mine is relatively long and its 
got a clip that slides neatly on to, say, a pocket - and if you tug too 
hard on the wire controller console, no dramas. the clip just slides off 
if too much pressure is applied to it (and its easy to put it back on 
securely). it doesn't use too much battery power, barely one AAA per 
month. got my reccomendation :)
i actually haven't found a wireless headset with mic in my searches, 
though i'm sure they exist.
best of luck.
