What are my options for voice communication?
The CE comes with three months free of Teamspeak, but a free program would be preferable.
Voice Chat?

Another idea would be to try run ventrilio
Setting up the server is rather strange but on resource usage its pretty slim, likewise with the client

It'd be cool if GW built in a chat client like CounterStrike did, so you could chat to guild, party, etc.

Besides, Teamspeak's client is very easy to configure and find a free server.

Any suggestions on a good, cheap headset to buy?
Virtuoso
I find that logitech headsets work fine. They have a many of them, so find one that works for you.

Running a Teamspeak server on your own computer is really simple. It took me no longer than a half hour to master it, and I have mine set up to only allow 8 people so that I don't eat up my bandwidth. You have choices on how much bandwidth the codec takes up, too, so try to choose a codec in it that is minimum bandwidth with necessary quality if you have a slow connection.
Oh, and don't forget to tell your router to forward port 8767 to your computer's local IP address. You just tell somebody who you want to connect your IP address assigned by your ISP, and they can connect.
If you end up partying with me, I'll be telling you my IP address. My router will not respond to anything other than port 8767 though, so don't try anything funny.

I use this headset:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826153002
It lights up (you can toggle it), detachable mic, 5.1 surround sound (emulates 7.1 if you have the AC-1), and won't fall apart like those cheap Logitech headsets :P
Sennheiser makes good earphones as well, you can't go wrong with it.
