Hi guys.
I just had an idea to make Sony's Pulse Elite work at the PS3 and PC without having to move the dongle all the time, but I am not sure if it would work (I haven't bought the Pulse yet), so I decided to ask for opinions about it. I have already created topics about it on other forums, but I did not get any satisfactory answer; so I decided to come here.
That's my post from IGN:

"Hello everyone.
My PS3 stays close to my PC, so I thought about getting a Pulse Elite and use it with both. I was going to connect the dongle into the PS3 and would use a 3,5mm cable to connect my PC to the dongle. The problem is that I would get no sound from my PC if the console is turned off, so I thought a about buying USB Y cable:
I would connect the dongle into the female end; the main cable into the PS3, and the thinner cable into my PC or a USB power adapter:
But would it work? If the PC and the PS3 were both turned on, wouldn’t that fry the dongle due to the extra power? Would the same happen if I were using a USB power adapter instead of the PC?"
Please, take a look and give your opinion. I just want to use the headset on my PC and PS3 without having to move the dongle all the time. I do not care about not being able to use the mic on PC.
Thanks,
