I think the microphones in that range are actually associated with
webcams, so they may actually be safe to include.  However, many of
those listed at gowdy.us in that range are pre-UVC gspca-supported
webcams, not UVC webcams, and there appears to be at least one webcam
outsude of that range (d001 - QuickCam Pro, also gspca).
