Gamecom X30 Headset - Opinions?

I'm after a mic for PC gaming with a completely inflexible set of criteria I'm afraid!

- Must be a head-mounted mic
- Must NOT be a set of full headphones. I've got a nice set of speakers and have no wish to block them out.

I've found the Plantronics offering, the Gamecom X30 which seems to fit the bill. Anyone have any experience with it? Or know any alternatives?

Cheers guys!

On the xbox you can choose for the audio to play through the speakers anyway

It's for PC anyways

. Thanks for the pointer, but I still don't want to cover up my ears, it seems really self defeating!

Got a few mates that just use the Speedlink clip on mic. Seems ok quality.

Then put it across your neck and keep the microphone up
