I had a very nice Plantronics (nice before it broke...). The swivel, microphone arm went too far around and broke off the microphone wires within the headset. There was no way to open the unit and repair the wires.With this experience under my belt, I sought out a bluetooth headset that had no moving parts, was small, and of course not obnoxious. The WEP200 is extremely small, has a very nice charging/holding case, and does not scream "hey, look at me!!"Only complaint is that of intermittent outages where the person on the other end cannot hear me (not something experienced with the Planotronics headset).
