Plantronics makes new PSP headset

Do you have a PSP headset? Not too many people do. Sony's official headset may seem cheap but don't be fooled: it requires that you have another accessory--one that isn't included with the $20 price tag. The PSP remote is also required for those that want to take advantage of Sony's microphone. Sure, it came included with PSP Value Packs, but many late adopters of the system will be forced to buy a separate $20 accessory.

If this all sounds too confusing to you, don't worry. Plantronics is releasing their own third-party headset accessory, which combines the functionality of Sony's headset and remote. It may seem expensive at its $35 retail price, but that's actually cheaper than buying both of Sony's peripherals. PSP GadgetZ also notes that Gamestop.com is providing the headset for even cheaper: $30.

While $30 may seem a bit steep for a headset, gamers that want to take advantage of the upcoming Killzone multiplayer patch may want to grab this as soon as possible.
