Get a really killer microphone from:

These mics are so good you can just lay it on your desk, and talk from across the room! No headset needed.

i am wanting advice on how to set it up so that my modem does the work for me - the calling and stuff, do i need any special software to do it? or is it even possible with a simple headset, modem and phoneline

Thanks for your links tho

It's easily doable with a normal modem, microphone, speakers and say, MSN Messenger.

I don't know exactly how to route it through the effects on your sound card, though. Maybe you do.
