Logitech - ClearChat Wireless PC Headset Review

I purchased a Logitech ClearChat Wireless PC Headset in hopes of being able to have a wireless solution for online communication software such as Skype and Ventrilo.  This headset is nice in the fact that it has a rechargable battery (charing cord included) and that it has an adjustable microphone so I can walk around the room while placing calls and talking on Skype.

The drawback to this headset is that the battery life is not as great as it should be, and you really have no warning on when the battery is going to die completely.  You'll be in the middle of a call and suddenly the headset beeps at you for a fraction of a second, then shuts off completely.  You can, however, use the headset while it is charging, but that defeats the purpose of a wireless headset.

The sounds quality is generally good when everything is running smoothly, however it seems to be rather vulnerable to interference from coordless phones and other wireless equipment.  Even with the USB transmitter sitting less than 16 inches from me on my desk, the headset will still beep and lose it's signal every now and then for about 3-4 seconds, which can be quite annoying.  When everything is working right, however, you can usually get a good 30 feet or so away from the transmitter before it becomes unusable.

Overall, this headset is pretty good for the money spent.  It's lightweight, comfortable, and the sound and voice quality are good.  The only improvements I would like to see are better range and less-vulnerability to interference.
