If you have a wireless headset for your 360 can you please tell me how satsified are you with it? Is the sound clear? I am thinking of purchasing one and I wanted to make sure before I do so. Thanks

I haven't heard good things about them. I don't own one myself, though.

Bad things I've heard:=Uncomfortable=Sporadic sound quality (sometimes it's great, sometimes it's terrible)=You sound crappy to others when using it=Connection issues (will randomly loose connection and take a few seconds to rediscover the Xbox) I've heard of some who have this issue and others who have never had a problem with this at all.=Also, you can't use it while it's charging, which is just bad design

I'd say it's convenient for voice chat when you don't want to stay in range of the wire, but aside from that, it sounds like a very poor solution for gaming, when you're holding the controller anyway so the wire isn't even an issue.

I have the Logitech wireless headset for the original xbox. I loved using it, but since it's not coompatible with the 360 and the xbox's only function is collecting dust, the headset is of no use. Logitech needs to come out with some 360 gear. Their wireless controllers for the xbox were top notch as well.

I had one too, I got mine from Woot in one of the two for tuesdays deals. $20 for two, it was definately the best purchase of any price that I made for my Xbox. I just wish they would hurry up and come out with something for the 360, hopefully by Christmas they will. If I don't see anything by Christmas I might pick up a Sennheiser Audiophile headset. It is not made for the 360, but it does do the same things, but better.
