How is it when you drive with the top down?
I've had a variety of BT headsets as well

-Motorola HS810
-Plantronics (dunno the model number)
-Jabra BT250

Out of all of them, the Jabra gets my vote, no contest... With the top down, you can't hear jack sh!t w/ the Motorola or the plantronics... I can hold a perfect conversation w/ the Jabra and have no difficulty hearing the other person... Thing is, w/ the top down, there'll be alot of wind so you'll probably have to roll the windows up for the person on the other end to hear you... Ask rsaeini... his @ss complains all the time cuz there's too much wind and can't understand a thing I'm saying... If you plan on buying one, can't go wrong w/ the BT250

I'd like to know too. I plan on only using mine indoors -- in private. I know I would feel pretty dorky walking around in public with one of those things in my ear, especially if I'm not talking to anyone.
