I deleted the above.  I bought a Logitech   At the time they had a sale
that cut the price
down to $19.99 to good to pass up.


      Premium USB Headset 350

It works quite well.   No analogue, controls all are digital.  Mute
button works quite well, maybe to wellas sometimes I accidently hit
it.    The  volume control doesn't work at all with the alsa released
with 10.2.   I compiled and installed the latest alsa and now when I
move the volume control a graphical volume indicator pops up and follows
my control nicely but no volume change is heard.  I suspect this is
under development and therefor being worked on.  The volume can be
changed via kmix as the USB headset is recognized there and in Skype. 
One advantage is that Skype can put the ringing sounds through my
speakers while routing the
conversation through the headset.
