Not sure if this is the right thread for this.

Here at the office we do quite a bit of Skype conferencing for work. The way we usually do it is we just stick a laptop in the middle of the table and fire up Skype.

This isn't ideal because laptop mics aren't really designed to pick up that many people talking at once, and will more often than not also pick up the speaker echo. Not to mention that it's kind of a pain in the rear end to move around the computer every time some sort of adjustment to the call has to be made.

Is there any mic/speaker combo that I could plug into the computer and set down on the table, while the computer itself remains (relatively) free to be moved around?

I've been looking into conference phones but not many of them support Skype, and the ones that do are pretty expensive, and I'm trying to do this on the cheap, if possible.
