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!"
I'm one of those rare Amp'd customers who had good credit and paid his bill every month. I foolishly chose Amp'd about 6 months ago because I could get 500 minutes on the Verizon network for $30 instead of the $40 from Verizon or AT&T. Did not care about all the ghetto crap they streamed, just wanted a phone.
So now I'm ported over to Verizon, got a new Razr for $9.99 and a two year contract with Verizon.
Learned my lesson and would not touch another startup cell phone carrier.
I too paid my bill on time.
