Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
#3: Thanks. I'm glad you agree. Most people just call it stupid. I like haveing unique stuff that makes people go :o when they see it. Buying UMTS/GSM phones from Japan seems to do the trick. I'm sorry to hear that you need 850. My rule would indeed be hard to live by if I didn't live somewhere with an abundance of 1900. You could get a Samsung D600. They make a quadband version of it. VK Mobile also makes a bunch of quadband stuff.
