I've been using a cheap one too for the past 4 months. It was working fine until up about a month and a half ago, now the cord has to be in a certain spot before it will work. I think that's the result of using it on a laptop where the microphone slot is in the front.
I don't remember the brand. Cyber Acoustics or something. But if you want a cheap $15 headset that lasts a while, and you don't have an easy way of breaking it, then I'd recommend it.
