Most all should work fine, just depends on how much money you want to spend. Any BT headset should work fine with OS 10.3 or later, and any mic will work with iChat or skyp.

*NOT* the SE HBH-65. I have it and it does something odd - - on connect it disconnects again to save power - Mac OS X doesn't like this.

I have the SE hbh-660 and it's damn irritating. It regularly disconnects from the powerbook with an error saying it has disconnected, restart the audio portion of the software you're using. I'm seriously annoyed with it, SE stuff is supposed to work seamlessly with apple gear, and this was their top of the line headset. It's near unusable with my powerbook, and I bought it to use with voip software.
