They changed the style of the headset. I broke my wired headset and when i went out to look for a new one all i was seeing was this new version by Microsoft, i dont like it, i always liked the volume and mute buttons by the controller. Now its on the wire! Shouldn't they be selling both versions? This one seems to be for if you havethe messenger kit.

Which stores are around your area and have you checked them all? If you have then you might have to buy one from an online store.

they still sell them eh? I gotta check out a couple stores. I was already in futureshop, bestbuy and the EBgames close to me and they didnt have any. Guy in best buy had no idea what "other" headset i was talking about...

i'll check out HMV I can't believe they are $29 canadian! I'll check around on ebay.

oh man, tell me about it...i recently broke my old style headset...i knew i got one with my new Pro in Jan...so i decided to use it and realized its the new style...which is BRUTAL! Its a horrible design...HORRIBLE!! Not only is it annoying the controls are on that little white dangling thing...but every time i move the speaker crackles and causes static...what a piece of crap!

i'm the same way. i hate the new one. i broke mine headset it broke the top wher eu plug in. i bought it from gamecrazy the had the new one. i don't like it. i tried clipping it onmy shirt and the clip is to tight to clip it on. uhave to kind of fitle with it to find the mute for the mic i have to figure out it is on mute or not.
