You definitely do get spoiled with the Bose X Headset. When I was on a international flight in Europe, I saw the crew using the Bose Quiet Comfort 2 Headset (audio ones) coupled with a microphone and adapter for the aircraft. Those definitely looked a lot more comfortable all together because they don't clamp at all! I wasn't sure or haven't researched the possibilities, but those could be really nice.

Correct, I'm currently using a Bose QC2 coupled with the UFLYMIKE adapter, works GREAT! still cheaper than my old David Clark ENC set or full sized Bose headset, look for all of it on Ebay or a bose outlet store near you, the uflymike can be ordered from the company direct or through Ebay, great piece of gear, same price. Both items fit nicely into the case that comes with the Bose QC2 headset, plus you can use the QC2 for music and quiet comfort (no pun intended) on those commutes / deadheads. The best feature IMHO is the compact size of the thing for commuting, takes up very little space in your flight kit, the whole thing seems to be less than a pound, and about 1/3 as bulky.
