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!"
If companies like AT&T were to offer "dumb phones" or even feature phones with full QWERTY keyboards, I think you would see a resurgence in dumb phone purchases. I don't know how many people I have seen purchase a smart phone with a QWERTY just to be able to TEXT.
Now the question is, who is doing is smarter? Verizon or AT&T? AT&T can sell a more expensive smart phone who only really need a QWERTY phone. Not to mention the data plan most will sign up for to get the additional rebates. Verizon offers "dumb" or feature phones with QWERTY keyboards and sells a crap load of them. Their profit margins are probably lower and they don't get as large of a cut on data plans, but they could very well be making up for it in volume.
