Which headset do I use?
Marc asked me a question based on my recent post on how I use my headset instead of a phone.
I just read your article about using your headset both as a telephone and speech recognition device. I agree with you, and I think more things will tend to shift this way in the future. It just makes sense.
I'm curious what headset you're using, as I've been looking around myself for a similar item for my home office. I'm pretty fussy about my speech recognition quality, though, so I suppose I am a difficult sale.
I'd appreciate your advice, as I'm sure you have had the opportunity to experiment with more things than I!
Answer: when I have a question about microphones, I ask Marty Markoe at emicrophones.com. They have good descriptions and FAQs about microphones for speech there, and I trust their advice.
Incidentally, on my desk right now I'm using the Plantronics DSP 400.
