Sitting here in the hotel with T3G at -57dBm and laptop battery at 13% and no recharger (knew there was something I forgot this morning), I can conclude that Geekzone06 was a great event.

I picked up a pair of Sennheiser PC150's earlier this year. Haven't used them for dictation but the sound quality on both the headphones and the mike was superb - especially considering the price.
