[Aaug] Soft Phone

[Scott Plante]

I like the Logitech USB headset w/ mic. I've been meaning to get a 
Polycom Communicator:

They're supposed to be for Skype, but people say they work just fine 
with any softphone. There's one button ("call"?) that'll only work with 
the Skype client. It just look like a usb sound device (speaker & mic) 
to the computer. We're very happy with the speakerphone on our Polycom 
IP phones. I've never found a computer mic I've liked that's not 
attached to my head, so hopefully this would be as good as the phones.
