Product Description
The Plantronics .Audio 480 is like having a private, portable oasis of sound while you're traveling. Listen to music, watch movies, or make Internet calls from your laptop without distraction. A noise-canceling microphone lets callers hear you clearly. In seconds, simply stow the headset and be on your way.

4 out of 5 stars Fit for Purpose   July 9, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

First of all let's define what this product is for: using it as a communications device rather than a listening device. I travel a lot and try to keep stuff in my laptop case to a minimum. This little headset is very practical to carry around, has good noise isolation, and so far I haven't had a complain regarding background noise, thus the noise cancelling in the mic must really work. I don't give it 5 stars due to the short cable, which I had to overcome with a USB cable extender.


1 out of 5 stars NOT USB Version   June 6, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is also not the USB version. The Title is wrong when it states USB. When Ordering this item: I received the version without USB ".Audio 480 Headset".
I did not receive the ".Audio 480 USB Virtual Phone Booth Headset"
There are two versions offered by Plantronics, and this is the 3rd Amazon Prime listing that either shows the USB adapter or has it in the Title - but when ordering you receive NO USB adapter. This the the 2nd one I ordered, 2 different Amazon Prime listings, indicating USB - but no USB shipping.



2 out of 5 stars comfort and sound quality needed   May 22, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Although these earbuds looks like they should be high quality they didn't fit my ears well even with a variety of "fits" available and the mic boom is propped in place with a plastic tab that isn't particularly comfortable. Combine that with a listening sound quality that is definately harder to get accustomed too I would recommend staying with a cheaper version or even with something like the earbuds that come with an iPhone. I probably won't use them very much which makes them a waste of money - on the high side for this type of product.


4 out of 5 stars NerdBoyTV likes Plantronics Virtual Phone Booth   March 23, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R10O3NECVL14MX Ryan Yee, Host of NerdBoyTV, introduces the Plantronics Virtual Phone Booth stereo headset. It's optimized for Skype, Windows Live, and Yahoo! Messenger with superb stereo sound and sound-isolating earbuds that let you "tune out noise and tune in to music, movies, MP3 players or streaming internet audio." Thus, the name..."Virtual Phone Booth."


2 out of 5 stars .Audio 480 is Awful   October 16, 2007
 5 out of 8 found this review helpful

The .Audio 480s have a compelling design but some serious flaws. First, the cord is very short, only 6 inches. For me, this was barely far enough to reach from the USB port on my monitor to my chair. Secondly, the audio quality isn't very good. Not horrible, mind you, but there are plenty of sets out there with far better audio quality for far less cost. Finally, the non-mic earbud (for your right ear) lacks the useful grip that it's partner earbud has, which fits into the groove of you ear to keep it steady and in place. I had a big problem with the right non-mic earbud constantly falling out, even after trying each of the different sized sleeves.
