RE: Cellphone Earpieces
These work nice for music. I guess they'd work with a Blackberry. They plug into a standard headphone jack:

Add one of these to up the volume:

I use a set in a 3/4 helmet that has a face shield but no windshield on the bikewith "free flowing" pipes. It's not Carnegie Hall, but for the price it gets the job done very nicely.

We're not telling you how to run your life, we are trying to save our own.
No phone call is that important where they can't wait till you reach a scheduled stop.
Hell, part of the reason for owning abike is to get away from it all, not to bring it with you.

Vibration on my belt.
You all have a point here. But - I am adult enough. All I asked was an earplug model, not how to live my life.

RE: Cellphone Earpieces
I left my house this morning, headed to an appointment. I pulled up to a stop light and while waiting for the light I looked around at the cars next to me. In the 2 vehicles to my right were 2 women both with cellphones to their ear. To my left, 3 more cars, again women, all with cellphones in their ear.
It was 7:20 AM. Based on their vehicles, I doubt any of them were Emergency Room surgeons enroute to save someones life. Please tell my why chatting with your girlfriends is so F...ing important that you risk someonelses life?
PS, My wife has the same affliction. I also refuse to ride with her, if she's driving, if she feels she might need to answer the cellphone. Bash away if you like, but driving is a full time job, others peoples lives are at stake.

"This forum has turned into a bunch of grumpy old men. Too many times I have seen people jump all over someone that has asked for simple advice. Everybody has their reasons for doing what they do.
READ the request and offer recommendations that pertain to the question. There was no mention of whether to or not use the blackberry. Get off of your soapbox and offer sound, friendly advice. If you want to comment on whether it is a good idea to listen to music or talk while riding, start your own thread.
If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
Flame me as much as you want. That just goes to prove my point.
If we cannot be kind and helpful to each other, who will"
Interesting to me that one of the reasons we all ride is the "freedom" we enjoy, yetwe'repretty damn quick to tell everyone else how to enjoy their version of that samefreedom...to the point of employing hyperbole to do it... Haw haw!
