P1000494
Here it is turned on and running. Interestingly, when you press the button on the right to mute it, the "On The Air" light flashes. Neat touch, that. The mic is in the base, and the speaker is in the top. This is sort of reversed from what you'd expect, since the top part LOOKS like a mic, and you'd naturally want to speak into THAT. :D Oh well, minor quible.
The only real complaint I have -- and mind you, this is a fault of Windoze rather than a fault with the device -- is that when the device is detected by the system, Windoze automatically switches all its sound to go through the USB device instead. Wish there was a way to turn that automatic reaction OFF so that sound continues to go through the regular speakers unless you explicitely tell it otherwise... Grrr...
