Spend the money and get a Jawbone...I got the old big one on clearance for 60 bucks at verizon...the new small ones are like 120...well worth it than buying the cheap ones. I can drive sixty five with the windows down and talk on it.

A cheap bluetooth will pick up alot of "backround" noise. I have had the best results when I use a bluetooth that is manufactured my the same company the makes the phone.

I have one by Plantronics. It's a cheapo at $25 but it works pretty good. I have crummy hearing so I have to keep it up all the way (except when I talk to the wife who doesn't know that you don't have to scream into a phone) but I can here OK. If I put my phone in my pocket while I'll sitting I get static in me earpiece.

I'm thinking about dropping the coin on the jawbone, simply because my beater toyota that I drive most of the time has crappy seals in the doors, and there is always wind noise.
I currently have the motorola H700 and it sucks.

Ya I hate when people are walkin around talkin on these things. I'm half deaf and a lot of my conversations depend on me readin lips as much as hearing and I never know if they're talkin to me, themselves or on some hidden spy microphone. Needless to say this isn't for my use, I just get to buy it.

The jawbone is by far the best out there. It does not matter if you are hard of hearing or not, what is going on around you either. It works on the vibrations that your jaw puts out when speaking and listening.
