I received mine today. Work just fine with all of the applications I have tested....iTunes, Ventrilo, World of Warcraft, etc. My Vent buddies tell me they sound better than the wired headset I was previously using.
I can get out of range when moving laterally 25 feet or so, but it re-acquires the signal after I move upstairs and get within 20 or so feet line of sight.
Setup was super easy; plug in the dongle, turn on the headset, and DONE.
Very happy with this purchase; Headset is light and comfortable. The boom mic will not interfere with pizza slices or martini glasses.
I only wish the volume/mute controls were on the left side so I wouldn't have to take my hand off my mouse - lefties rejoice!
Agree with previous comments regarding adjustability for large heads...I wish it had an extra 1/2 inch to expand; hence only 4 stars.

I just got my Logitech ClearChat Wireless headset today, and so far so good. It is the third wireless stereo headset I've tried and it is by far the best of all three. After using my first two wireless headsets, I switched back to my wired one due to echos during Skype calls, poor headset volume (I had trouble hearing people), and low mic volume (people had trouble hearing me). I haven't experienced any of these problems with my new headset. Of the four calls I've made so far (3 Skype to Skype and one SkypeOut) the only comment I received was that I sounded a little more "electronic" then normal. To be fair, the same person who mentioned this, also asked for the product info at the end of the call. Below is a summary of the pros and cons that I have found so far.
Pros:
Audio sounds great (using both Skype and iTunes)
No echo when used with Skype
Volume is more than adequate and louder than my previous wired headset
Comfortable fit (my wife disagrees with me here)
Easy to use volume

I have had these for a couple days now, and I am actually really impressed with them. I use headsets a lot for work, and have tried other various wireless ones and have always just accepted that with wireless you were giving up sound quality. Thats not the case with these though, they sound just as good as regular wired headsets. I not only use them for skype but also for listening to music, which is a first for any wireless skype headsets I have tried. The range is really good too, I can walk around my entire apartment and get a strong reception.
Some cons:
I have a fairly big head and they don't quiet fit, even when fully extended. They are just barely too small, by like a half inch. I can move them back further on my head and make it work, but it would be nice if they could extend just a bit more.
This is pretty minor, but the wall plug is kind of cumbersome. I'm not sure what about it I don't like, I think just that I hate wires and its one more loose wire I have to deal

The Logitech ClearChat PC Wireless Headset is a good product, and it does what it says it do. I love the freedom to move around and listen to my music or talking to friends on Windows Live Messenger while i'm doing different chores around the apt. But, i also found and just ordered another Digital Wireless Gaming Headset HS-1200 made by "Creative",and their claim is that their headset battery can be charge using any USB Port instead of using a wall outlet, and their Distance is good for up to "72" feet instead of the 33 feet by Logitech. And their hardware does come with a software CD.

THese are amazingly good. I am pretty sure they use the Avnera technology, I dont think there is anything else out there that it could be. I use them to listen to music and to make skype calls - works great for both, no switching back and forth, it just works. Music is spectacular since it's full spectrum 20Hz-20KHz, and (since I think this is Avnera) no lossy compression like bluetooth etc that messes up the music experience. It certainly sounds like they are lossless.
Skype calls are very clear, the equivalent to a wired headset. Range is very good, better than they claim, I have walked 50 feet away from my PC and still had a perfect connection through walls and doors, which is nice. No interference from/with wifi or bluetooth as near as I can tell.
Installation was nice - I plugged in the usb dongle, and that was it. Vista switched me over so that was my default audio device. Literally no software, no hassling with settings, etc - they just worked right out of the box.
