Headphones again

I broke my boom microphone on my headset following the Installfest and I
don't think I can get a replacement, so I will be buying a new headset.
This time I want a headset with a microphone that will work with Google
Chat on Fedora 14. This headset, a SB Arena did work to where I could
use sound preferences, but I was never able to get Google Chat to use
the mic. I think this time, instead of a USB mic, I will get a
headset/mic with standard cables since some of the things I have seen
state that Google Chat tends to use the other mic channel. Possibly a
Logitech Gaming Headset that has the standard speaker and mic plugs with
an additional USB adapter or possibly a Plantronics with similar specs.

Again, the importance to me is to be able to use this for online
meetings as well as to make calls via Google.
