My participants in both iChat and Skype calls complain that they hear themselves in a delayed echo. Turning down the volumn helps a little. Discussions in these forums state that the problem is the close proximity of the loudspeaker and the microphones in the MacBook 13". Consequently, I think I should invest in a headset.
But which headset?
On airplanes flights I find the headphones irritate my ears after a short while. Wireless, Bluetooth headphones would be great, but I'm concerned about the extra weight on my ears.
Your experience and suggestions are appreciated.

In these situations, headphones are about the only way to go. I think you'll just have to route around and find some that you find comfortable. I've never had the need for a full headset.. Just some half decent headphones have been fine.
Echo's are less of an issue with the original separate iSight cams, as those had noise cancelling mic's built in. Where as I believe Apples intel laptops have no such thing. Hence the echo problems.

The worst thing about having a failing memory is..... no, it's gone.
