Oh internets... know anything about USB microphones?

Subpress has hired me to do an audio version of a story and I want it to sound good. Yanni recommended I get the best USB mic I can find but... I'm lazy and don't like shopping. Anyone here know what I should get?

I know Sound Blaster makes one, and M-Audio make several (some of which can also serve as untethered stand-alone recording stations). Seth mentions using an external digital recorder for the reduction of background noise, which makes excellent sense. People should prefer audio recording advice from Seth to advice from me by a big margin, he's done a huge amount more of it.
