 Great Value November 11, 2008
Mike Hayward (Boulder, CO USA)
I purchased this headset to use with Dragon NaturallySpeaking and Windows speech recognition. I've been using it for over a month with great success. Although I'm glad it comes with a USB adapter, I don't use it with any of my computers since it works great with all of the built-in jacks I've tried. I've transported a number of times and it's quite nice that faults up into a very small bundle not much larger than a mouse. This fold ability sometimes leads to a sloppy fit and some slipping, but once I get it positioned properly I can go for hours without adjusting it. It would be nice if the headset came with a small bag like my Logitech Bluetooth mouse. The size of the headset as well as the left-hand boom are adjustable enough but I imagine it would work for most people. My head is larger than average and I find it quite comfortable. It is incredibly light weight which is important if you intend to wear it for extended periods of time. The cord runs about 9 feet which is good since it allows for the option of limited movement and seating within a few feet. The in cord volume control and mute switch are handy, although I don't use them that frequently since I find it more convenient to disable my speech recognition via voice. I feel that this product is of sufficient quality that I should be able to get many years of use out of it and I highly recommend it.

The sound is good but it seems like the whole headset is braking apart, i have to return it and bought a different model.

Excellent! Easy to hear well and the microphone works flawlessly! The folding is a bit awkward, but comfortable for wearing.

I bought the Plantronics 470 because my headsets were not giving good quality voice. This headset works well, has excellent voice and hearing, holds up to travel stresses. It is excellent quality for the money.
 second headset works fine . . . . . October 24, 2008
T. C. Tindall (creston, nc USA)
The second Plantronics Foldable headset works fine,so far.
The original headset worked for a few days before the microphone failed. Amazon customer service responded heroically and replaced the defective headset by overnight air delivery service. Amazon gets five stars, but in the words of our great leader, George W., "the jury is still out on the longevity of the Plantronics Foldable Headset" . . . . . thomast
