USB microphone / headphones for training

[Wilhelmina Randtke]

Yes, I have USB Logitech headphones and they are great.  The model I got
retails for $55, but was on clearance for $5 at RadioShack the day before a
Skype meeting.  Just a coincidence, but the audio quality is really good.
The mic picks up close to my face, presents my voice clearly, and doesn't
have any distortions.  I wish I had bought two pairs, to keep one in my
travel bag and one in my office, but mostly because $5 when I got it off
the rack.
