Product Description
Etymotic Research combined its noise-isolating earphone and noise-rejecting directional microphone technologies to produce the most technically advanced headset of its kind. The insert earphone optimizes sound quality and noise isolation, and the close-talking directional microphone allows you to speak softly for greater privacy. With the ETY-COM, clear two-way conversation is possible in very high levels of background noise.

 Ok but won't stay in place December 8, 2007
Own this for a year now.
Pros:
Great background noise removal.
Small.
Lots of ear pieces.
Cons:
The microphone can pick up wind noise and you can't tell but everyone else can. Later versions included a foam wind screen.
Ear wax makes the ear piece slippery can't clean it well. Top this with a very narrow range pickup for the microphone means if it is under your mouth it is effectively the same as mute.
I would still get it again because you can hear your calls while on the road.
 Disappointed August 3, 2007
After the wire broke on my Plantronics M170 (six years of constant use later) I decided to buy something different. Well I bought this Etymotic ER22 based on the reviews here on Amazon. It was a disappointment. I tried the different earpieces and never could find one that worked well. The microphone portion of the unit kept rotating down and away from my face. It is also difficult to see where the microphone is in relationship to your mouth without looking in a mirror. Mic placement is critical with this unit. A longer boom for the microphone and a headband or ear hook might be good additions to this unit. The sound was just ok. The included assortment of earpieces was a nice touch but alas I can only give this unit two stars. I bought a Plantronics M175C to replace the ER22 which has much better sound both sending and receiving. Anybody interested in a slightly use ER22? ;)
Good mic, bad speaker June 16, 2007
Arrived in mail, connected it to my treo and called my mom. She heard me just fine, which was a nice change from all the wireless earphones I have used in the past (two Nokias, plantronics, jabra). But even with a good seal in my ear, I couldn't hear very well. Maybe I have bad hearing or maybe it was the Treo. They are known for having low volume. Anyways, I returned it. I am so tired of shopping for something that will work. After hundreds of dollars worth of wireless and now this, I am running out of options.
 I Can Hear Again!!! January 8, 2007
Suffering from profound hearing loss, and being a hearing aid user, I have struggled with using the phone, and I have never been satisfied with the telecoil option with the hearing aids. I have tried other headsets and my results were terrible. With this Etycom headset I can now hear the phone again clearly, even though I have to take out my hearing aid to use it, it is well worth every penny. I also work in a noisy environment, (railroad conductor) and has made communications much more bearable. People on the other end of the conversation can definately tell the difference when I use the headset.
 It works great - after I got my Treo 650 fixed November 11, 2006

This headset works great. The customer service at Etymotic Research is also excellent. When I originally got the headset, I thought there was a problem because I could barely hear on my Treo. I called Etymotic Research customer support and they cross-shipped a new headset. The new one didn't work either. Then I used my warranty on the Treo 650 to get this replaced. The new one works great with the headset - and the support from Etymotic Research is incredibly better than Sprint :). I can't change the star rating on Amazon, or I would change it to a 5.
