I'm sure the Mrs. will love her new headset! What're *you* gonna use? :-)

Well, they arrived today -- a brand-spanking new pair of LightSpeed 20

3Gs.

In the box was a note from Allan, stating: "This headset is given freely
for your use and enjoyment. May the accumulated improvements we've made
provide you with years of trouble-free flying! :-) "

Actually, they now become the "Left Seat" set -- which means we'll each wear
them 50% of the time...

As a result of your testimonial (and others' comments in reply), I'm
seriously considering getting a Lightspeed headset now. Probably others
here are too. I think Lightspeed made an excellent investment by sending
you a free headset!

I agree.

Let's just hope they actually solved the design problems in THIS model. I
will be posting results over time, and I'm rooting for them!

Wizard,

fair treating them with kid gloves.


Uhm, I treat ANYTHING I paid 500 bucks for with kids gloves - but maybe
you rich guys are different.

Thomas,
I believe Jay said these were free, as a marketing ploy and in exchange
for his demonstrated loyalty to the brand.

And...
I draw cartoons for a number of reasons, and one of them is because I do
not have a lot of money. Oh, I admit that people are willing to pay me
for a few doodles now and then, but only just enough to keep my aviation
appetite satiated.

I am lucky enough to be rich in many other ways: a loving and wonderful
wife who tolerates my eccentricities, two wonderful children who
aggravate me as often as they can but still make me proud, I'm
reasonably healthy and happy, I have a talent that many envy, and last
but not least, I can fly.

Wealthy yes, but it isn't the kind you find in any bank.

Best wait and see how long *this* set lasts.

Good point. If I were getting my first headset, I'd certainly want to wait
for more evidence. But since Lightspeed's repair service is good, I can
afford to gamble a little, since I can just fall back on my older headsets
for awhile if need be.
