Has anyone here tried using the FreeSpeak headset?

[phonemonkey]

I'm getting a new cell phone hopefully tomorrow (providing that Sprint was fast in shipping my phones), and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade my hands free kit. My current hands free headset is a no name brand, with really bad voice reception (people often complain it picks up the background more than my voice). I saw the FreeSpeak at Fry's and thought it looks interesting, but don't want to drop $80+ to see how well it works.

Has anyone here ever tried it? If so, how well did it work for you?

Its pretty decent. I've had it for a while. I tend to use it more at home. In the car I have a wired one. I guess I could just make it a habit to plug in the little transceiver into the phone before driving off and use it but its not a big deal to me.

Does it do a decent job of cancelling any background noise (ie: car engine, wind, etc)?

As well as any other headset I've tried. My person favorite is the Jabra earbud where the mic is built into the earpiece.

I sitll think the OEM earbuds are the best headsets. I have used probably 75% of the ones on the market, and hated everyone but the earbud.
