I bought this to use with my Mac for Skyping and Gizmo'ing. I wanted something small and the optional headset jack was a plus for privacy. Be aware that the headset jack fits your standard Cell phone headset, not a standard PC headset. It works okay, as advertised.

Positives: Works with no drivers, small, sound quality is above average, better than the built in microphone on my iBook.

Possible negatives: Draws too much power to plug into the usb port on my keyboard, and the cell phone size audio jack requires you purchase a cell phone style headset.

What I'm actually using now is a dinky, single ear/mic headset with a plantronic's usb headset adaptor....

I came across this comprehensive review when browsing the Internet. I would have written a review but this review says everthing I wanted to say:

"mVox is a Cupertino based company and we all know great things come from Cupertino.

The miniVox MV100 portable USB speakerphone is designed for Internet telephony and web conferencing applications such as Skype, Vonage, Webex, Marratech, Breeze, GizmoProject, or iChat AV. The miniVox is a nice solution for PowerBooks, laptops, or even desktops when you want engage in hands-free conversations or conference calls. It is small (Dimensions: 3.2 x 2.2 x 0.8 inches - 8.1 x 5.5 x 2.0 cm) and light (Weight: 1.5 ounces - 42 grams) and cheap. The miniVox MV100 also has a 2.5mm headset jack on its left size.

As anybody that has engaged in VoIP or web conferencing with a computer has experienced, audio works best with a PC headset. When you try and use your computer speakers and a mic, echo will plague the other participants. It is a simple matter of acoustics, the audio from your speakers will leak back into your microphone and cause the person you are speaking to to hear themselves back with an annoying delay. If more than one participant is connected this way, your conference may end up being a nightmare.

The solution for this is echo suppression. Many of the VoIP and web conferencing application do not have any echo cancellation or it is not robust enough to handle a acoustic situation like this. miniVox MV100 portable USB speakerphone is a full duplex speaker phone (110dB peak volume) with DSP voice processing for noise suppression and echo cancellation. The miniVox MV100 portable USB speakerphone sounds better when I use it with Skype than my expensive Nortel Networks speaker phone on my companies PBX. It is USB plug and play and no driver installation is needed.

I have used it on several Macs and Windows machines and I was impressed that such a low cost device worked this well. Since it is about the size of a portable bluetooth mouse it now has a place in my PowerBook's backpack.

mVox also makes the mVox MV900 which is a bluetooth version and costs about $160. There are several other USB speakerphones on the market some costing over $300. But miniVox MV100 portable USB speakerphone works well, is low cost, and it is small. You will find it a pleasure to conference without a headset. Try it you will like it."

Over the years, I have used many different tools for conference calls. My favorite has always been the various Polycom Soundstation devices which are excellent. Polycom has two big drawbacks however - they are quite expensive ($500-$1000 depending on options) and very bulky.

mVox shows how to provide a similar facility for VoIP calls, at a fraction of the price, and with the added advantage of being quite portable.

This small, credit card sized, speakerphone plugs into a USB port and just works. The small size allows it to easily travel with my laptop. It has excellent echo-cancellation. It handles jitter reasonably well. Since its an audio device, it can't directly handle packet-loss itself. However, Skype handles that as well as any VoIP application ever does. The microphone is fairly sensitive - I've used it will eight people around a table and all could be clearly heard at the other end of the call.

The mVox is one of those joys of life which just works. It doesn't have any complex setup. I can connect it to a colleagues laptop and confidently expect it to work correctly first time.

It only has one drawback - it has a limited frequency response. Calls over the mVox sound like AM radio talkback. The conversation is very clear, but it lacks high and low frequencies. For conference calls, I have never found this a major problem.

Highly recommended....
