Living an ocean’s breadth away from family and friends can be trying, at the best of times. When you know you are a thousand miles away from home, all the joys, worries, and sorrows appear magnified, and the aching desire to instantly share every news and every emotion can be painful. But in this internet era, there is no better way to connect than a long, fulfilling voice and video chat.

Despite the ease of internet telephony, one needs a decent microphone headset – something to eliminate the laptop speakers’ static and transmit my voice crystal clear across continents.

The Sennheiser PC 121 is designed for internet telephony services such as Skype, Yahoo, MSN and others. The headphone and mic jacks at the end of the PC 121 connect in the corresponding sockets of any desktop computer or laptop. That’s it – you can begin to babble. With a volume control and microphone mute switch built into the headset cable, it is child’s play to adjust audio levels.

The Sennheiser PC 121 is affordable and portable, perfect for people who voice chat on any VOIP application. If you need to carry it to office or anywhere else, you can easily stash this slim headset deep in your pocket.

The comfortable over-the-ear design has an adjustable rubber earloop which moves a whole 180 degrees to fit easily over either the left or the right ear. The audio quality is supreme even in noisy environments and Sennheiser claims the mic to have “high speech intelligibility”.

The Sennheiser PC 121 is an ideal in-ear headset for anyone trying to look less like an alien in this alienated world – perfect for use both within the home or in business.
