Echo is a big problem with headsets, especially those with the mic up 
near the earpiece, and a tube to the mouth. Its also a problem in 
traditional telephone handsets. A good IP phone handset should have an 
acoustic echo canceller cleaning up its mic signal. A lot (even many 
expensive ones) don't, and produce considerable echo if you turn up the 
handset volume for the hearing impaired.
