cordless head phones?

spooky donkey

Do any of you guys use cordless head phones for games and what are they like?

I know cordless mice arent great beasuce of the 200 mili second delay but what is that like for head phones and gaming. I supose it doesent really matter for mp3 listening but does it affect gaming, like you hear the guy behing shooting you 1/5 of a second after he starts daming you. It it a real disadvantage?

I have an infrared sony set at home that I use for the tv in the bedroom. I could bring them to "The Darkside II" LAN Game (Shameless Plug..:D), and you could see (or hear) for yourself.

Let me know

BTW - I'm not selling them

Get the infrared ones rather than the radio ones. The infrared ones are limited to line of sight and about 7m from the transmitter. But the radio headphones have big problems with interference. I have a pair of Sony radio headphones, and there's a popping noise if someone is using a mobile in the next room...
