[Trainer-Talk] Looking for a Specialized Headset

[Bryan Schulz]

Hi,

Are all the Plantronics the same meaning the two cords connect about two
feet from your ears?
Just the cord from the middle to the usb plug is about $60.
A few months ago the split headset was $375 from Oklahoma.

Good morning!

I'm wondering if anyone can help me out...I received the request below from
a work colleague so she can both listen to virtual instruction and hear her
screen reader.  I know what she is asking for, but no idea how to find it.
Can someone send me a link or more information that may help me find this
item?

"Is there a way to get a headset that can have one earbud designated solely
to JAWS while the other earbud is designated solely to whoever I may be
talking to? I haven't a clue as to the name of these kinds of headsets. I
know they are used by blind/visually impaired people who work in call
centers.  My concern with the headsets given to me is that whenever I am
using the keyboard in any capacity, JAWS will talk over anyone else talking
in the classroom. With the duel functioning headset, I can listen to JAWS
and anyone talking at the same time without JAWS talking over anyone."

Thanks so much for any help you can give!
Amy
