4 of 5 Works well Thursday, July 31, 2008
A Skyper from Richmond, Kentucky  

Sound is great with reception by both the caller and recipient. Mic is really pretty good. It is a little difficult to keep on ears and get used to though.

5 of 5 works as advertised Friday, June 27, 2008
A Gamer from Columbus, Ohio  
Item PSP Skype Headset. I really love purchasing items that work out of the box. You know, no software updates, batteries, or assymbly, this is one of those items. It simply works as advertised. Nothing special. I also used Google checkout for the first time and recieved an additional ten bucks off.

5 of 5 Headset works Great Wednesday, May 28, 2008
Shawn from Syracuse, UT  
This headset works fantastic with skype. Had it up and going with a new skype account in under 10 minutes. Made several calls and the clarity was great. As I walked around the house the calls got a little choppy but still usable. Worked better than the WiFi phones for skype and cheaper if you already have a PSP. I would highly recommend this product if you are looking at Skype as an alternative phone carrier. It is a cheap way to see how it all works and doesn't require you to use a computer.
