I used to use headphone+microphone to make Skype calls, now I noticed the macbook pro only has 1 headphone jack(not sure if it is also microphone jack), I searched google and found imic, which is a USB audio in/out port, but is there anything that has 1 plug with both audio input and output capabilities?

I don't need an expensive one, all I need is making Skype calls. I have a single headphone for listening to music.

Thanks a lot!
 
Why don't you try a blutooth headset. The MBP has blutooth doesn't it? Any mobile blutooth would probably wok.
 
I got these--the iFrogz earpollution timbre with mic--they're earbuds but surprisingly good, mic is great as well. Here's a review (and there are other reviews out there):

I used the smallest of the earbud covers in order to allow some outside sound in, since I don't really like feeling closed in. I bought them at mygearstore for about $35. Personally, I love the sound.
 
The cheap US$20ish ones on the skype.com store are pretty good actually, the "super wideband audio" ones - Freetalk Everyman USB Headset.
