You should like the Oakleys, they also look pretty good when you wear them. If you're a noise canceling fan you should check out the boom quiet. http://www.theboom.com. Not small but they work well in really high noise applications including helicopters.:) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael May" <MikeMay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "GPS-talkusers-freelists.org" <GPS-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008 9:02 PM Subject: [gps-talkusers] new Bluetooth earphone >I am constantly searching for the ideal Bluetooth earphone primarily to use >with my cell phone but also to use with other devices.
