Hello marctronixx,
thanks for your response.
I really like this forum and have found it super useful for the last couple days of intense research.
I am new to this forum but not new to the world of *forums*

so I know to do lots of searching before I post.
if you notice I have responded to many threads even ones that are months old since I found them to be relevant to my question.
I actually found the thread you moved my post to and then posted my topic separately because:
I was looking for what exact *products* people had gotten and why ... not the *type* of headsets (wireless, earplug, etc) which is what that thread focused on. (note that I have not gotten any response to my question

)
I was interested in finding out what people liked, was it comfortable, the quality of the mike, the features they liked etc. to help me decide what I am going to buy ...
that I think (and still do) is a different focus that that thread.
again this is a great board and I appreciate the explanation! At first I was just really trying to find out what happened to my darn post
David
