The phone companies make too much money from the texting activities of minors and their revenue stream will actually increase vs decrease (BY DESIGN) so if people think this is a win for better driving just watch what happens.

My car can be a bit on the noisy side, but when I'm on the Jawbone, generally people can't even tell that I'm driving. I've also talked while walking along a busy street with no problems. It's relatively expensive, but worth it, in my experience. If you do get a noise canceling headset, I highly recommend the Aliph Jawbone.
