Although the Jabra ear-gel was much more comfortable than the normal piece of foam, the unit didn't work as well as I expected it to. When I bought my phone, I was given the Nokia hands-free kit for free. THe only time I really used it was in low-reception situations, since I wouldn't have to move my phone a whole lot. WHen I bought the Jabra Classic EarSet, I was expecting it to work better than the Nokia's, which picked up a lot of background noise. Upon receipt of the earpiece, I did not notice a difference between either of the two, other than the color and feel of it in my ear. Over all, it's a great product, but I recommend the other Jabra product, as it's only a few dollars more and worth the price.
