How many of you have headsets? (with a mic.)
Just select the correct option, trying to feel out our potential caller-base.

I have a mic seperate, and I also can steal one (or 3/4) that is all in one. Although I doubt I'll call in.

I remember seeing a thing to initiate voice chat, which I assume would be what you want.

Those of you with built in microphones have to check for yourselves how they work and whatnot, and whether you'll be able to have a conversation with it.

Yea it works at whatnot. I'll have to make sure the room is quiet though.

Can you have multiple chats going? They just need to be able to feed it to the server.

I don't think so, It takes quite a while to connect, and once you do I don't think you can just pause it or something. They'll be better off with Skype, though I've never used that.

Yea we are hoping to use Skype, so those of you who want to call in, get Skype, its free and fairly simple to use.
