If they've fixed the crappy microphone quality, it'll be on my wish-list for Christmas.
I was about to say the same thing. Thing is, Sony doesn't have a good track for quality microphones in their headsets. For some reason, all the Sony earphones and headsets I own simply suck when trying to have a phone conversation. They're pure garbage, they pick up all the background noise. To me, it's a really key point and now avoid them despite my preference for their sound signature.
