Since wireless buds have to pick up my voice at the ear, I'm concerned that wind, cars, etc. are going to drown out my voice. Curious to hear you opinions.
Try the Plantronics 5200. The earpiece rests on the ear canal, not in it, so there's little reduction of ambient noise. If the caller is on your contact list, the name will be announced, as well as the option to accept or reject the call by saying "answer" or "ignore," all without touching either the headset or phone. It is by far the best noise cancelling headset I've ever used.
