In a handbasket
I used to use a BlueParrot VXI BT-250-XT and it was great. Excellent battery life and excellent noise rejection. But then Apple apparently changed something in their bluetooth stack and it stopped working correctly, although it still works on an Android phone.

I've tried the LG HBS-800 and the mic isn't sensitive enough, and it's just too fragile. Yeah it can play music, but I don't need that feature.

I'm looking for something that hooks over the ear and has a boom mic. It just needs to be sturdy with good audio quality.

Anyone using something they can recommend?

Hey if your looking for a good quality headset ear piece type unit This is the best I ever used
http://www.plantronics.com/ca/product/voyager-legend

a bit about why I rec this unit. I am a class 1 driver and have a nice and noisy 2004 westernstar. With windows open and my Jake rapping in the background the people I talk to can barley hear the truck but I am loud and clear. I also find that my mother can hear me really good with the legend unit and she has really bad hearing impairment. The unit goes on sale every now and then but at $80+ its worth it.
I am currently testing a headset thats a knock off of the legend and close to same quality about 98% same but I find the knock off is actually a better system for charging. battery life runs about 7 hours talk time but can sit for a good length of time with casual usage.

Note I am not a rep or any such to any product. I am just a truck driver and geek and like to pass word of products that I like. Hope this helps for you
