I get stuff like that from Hello Direct http://www.hellodirect.com and know they carry both of those two brands. I reckon I am partial to Plantronics since I come from old school telephony yet am sure that whatever they sell would work as advertised since I trust the company.

Subject: [internetworkers] Website search problems, and phone headsets

 

Hi, folks.

 

I'm in the market for a headset for my office phone, and I was looking for recommendations.  I thought I'd go to the INW website and search the archives before posting.  Well, I searched on "headset" and got no results (lots of ad links, tho).  I thought that was sort of odd, so to test the search engine, I typed in "Apple", figuring that someone, sometime, must have mentioned that.  Nope.  Got three hits -- two with "apply" and one with "appeal".  All of which were from 2002.  Then I clicked on "Home" and got a very amusing 404 page, which has "Your page couldn't be found" in several dozens of languages, including Mac User, where it is translated as "If you'd been using a Mac, this wouldn't have happened", which is very funny in its own right, and funnier still because I AM using a Mac.

 

So....I have two questions.  One is whether or not anyone has any recommendations for headsets (I'm particularly interested in wireless ones like the Plantronics CS55 and the GN Netcom 9120) and if there are any interference issues with wireless networks (I've had one report of such a problem). 

 

The other is how to search the archives.

 

Thanks,

Greg
