Less Than I Expected [Posted on 2008-02-24]
I purchased this headset about nine months ago after reading all the largely positive reviews. This headset is used primarily for voice recognition dictation with Nuance Naturally Speaking 9.0. First, I was put off by the very long cord and the large audio processing unit on it. Then, I felt the folding headset to be pretty rinky dink and too fragile for traveling. But, I rationalized that surely the digital enhancement would greatly improve the voice recognition leading to reduced typing errors and justifying this purchase. After several months of retraining the software to the new device, I returned to using the "el cheapo" headset I initially received from Nuance, which produces far fewer typing errors.

Very good quality but not as convinient as a wireless [Posted on 2008-03-11]
This headset is a great quality product. Easy to reach volume commands, clear sound, including when I listen to music. I just realized after using it a lot with Skype that a wireless one would be much more convenient for me.

Beware of the advertisement. It came without a USB connection and I sent it back.
Flexibility is key [Posted on 2008-07-14]
I've had my headset for three months now and I have to say this is the best headset I have every owned. The flexibility offered with the hinged folding feature of this headset makes it unbeatably comfortable and durable for all sizes and shapes.
I put this headset through its paces. I use it for transcription work from audio tapes. I also use it for dictations with Dragon Naturally Speaking. I've also been known to fall asleep wearing it while listening to music in bed only to wake in the morning still wearing it. Lately I've been using it to make calls to people all over the world using Skype.
The sound and recording quality is unbeatable and I really like the adjustable volume control on the headset cable. Speaking of the cable, that extra long cable gives you a lot of mobility to move around the desk while talking.
Needless to say, I wear this headset for many hours of the day. It's so comfortable that I've forgotten I was wearing it a few times when I stood up to walk away from my PC and had it yanked from my head! With other headsets they'd be broken or bent out of shape by now from falling asleep while wearing them. Not this one. The built in hinges in the middle of the headset and on each ear piece make it very forgiving.
My only complaint, and it is one I have with all headsets, is that in warm weather when your head tends to perspire, the earpiece coverings don't hold up well to the moisture. That's easily remedied with replaceable covers though.
