Hi Terri: I'm interested. I have a hearing problem as well, and used a headset, that covered both ears, but I listened to the customer and my jaws speech with the same ear. I didn't think I could do it, but it wasn't as difficult as it sounds. I may need such a headset as you describe in the future. Patti
