Default Intercoms vs Open Face Helmets

Say what you will--I like my wife. That's why we got our first HD (Heritage) this last summer--and we love it! We'll love it some more this coming summer.

Now I want an intercom. I'm down to Autocom and Starcom1 (Baehr's are too $$$). Both have had good reviews and claim to have good noise cancelling. We have two pairs of helmets (modular and half-shell) where I'd like to get headsets in both pairs. My biggest concern is the wind pounding on a boom-mic with the half-shell. We have a windshield which I would think helps but even then, the wind whips around onto my wife harder than me.

Anybody with some experience with a boom-mic on a open face helmet? Thanks!
