Look at sizes and weights, though weights are hard to judge in the package. I have a jabra, I had one that fit well, this one does not.... so I may buy a new one in a few weeks. If something does not fit well in my ear it hurts like mad. once you have made a selection from looking at them, comparing bulk, google them, check reviews, then buy online if you want to save some $$. If time matters more than money, head back to the store and buy them. In the latter case, you can do all of that in one day, morning look, noon research, evening buy. __________________ And now, Grandfather, I ask you to bless the White Man.

I am just trying to get a feel for what to look for. I like the design of the Jabras that go behind the ear; I am just worried they wont pick up my voice in my car (noisy). __________________ Cogito ergo sum Avatar courtesy of JAmerican.

They pick up great, all the jabra line are good. My only complaint is personal to me, my ears don't like to have things in them.

Actually, that is the one my parents bought me for my birthday. My only gripe with it is that it doesn't want to stay on my ear very well; but, that is probably a function of my ear more than the headset.

The Siemens was straight out of Star Trek but un comfortable that got retired. I then got a Jabra 200 decent price but real comfortable(unfortunate demise). Replaced it with a Jabra 800 this is a very cool headset but for me its not comfortable and wearing it to some degree defeats its purpose. Now I have the 500 it's better than the 200 not as bulky ; but not quite 800. __________________ If its free it's for me!!
