Hi Ed,

Our JAWS and voice recognition users (Dragon NaturallySpeaking Pro) use the
"Supra H61N" headset from Plantronics (about $120.00). It has dual ear pads
and a noise canceling microphone.  We hook that to an "MX10 Headset Switcher
Adapter" (about $150.00), also from Plantronics.  We hook the MX10 to both
the PC and to our phone system.  It has settings and switches to match
different phone systems (including single and multi-line systems), you can
mute the mic, adjust volume separately on incoming and outgoing calls.  The
unit is about the size of, hmmm, of a cigarette pack. This has proved to be
a good solution for all of us. 

I hope that helps,
Jabo

Even with a spacious office, coworkers can be annoyed listening to the
mellifluous tones of my Dec Talk synthesizer powered by JAWS.
Has anyone heard of a multi-function headset where one ear picks up the
telephone, the other ear picks up the synthesizer, and the same headset
microphone doubles as a telephone mouthpiece and computer microphone so
that, by flipping a switch, one can go from talking on the phone to
dictating to ones computer using, for example, J-SAY?
I have researched this fairly extensively and have come up empty.
Plantronics' system is  one function short.
Thanks!
