Hi Kliphton, Emrah, Sarah, and Others, That was an interesting bit of information on the Plantronics headset model. I'll paste in the descriptive information I found about it, and the source URL for the description, which is probably not the best place to buy from. The web page was at Business Telecom Products, Inc. and was titled, "Plantronics Headset & Amp Customized for Visually Impaired or Dictation" Model for the device, as Kliphton stated, is PL-SMH1783-11
