I noticed that you use a mouse.  I love my Trackball by Kensington/  It
operates like an upside down mouse.  Try it, you will love it also.

The microphone does have an ear loop which sits securely on my ear and stays
in the position you saw on the picture.
As for the Peachtree, it is not really visible in that picture.
I will try to paste a picture of me in my wheelchair that has a better view
of the Peachtree, but keep in mind this is an older model.  The new ones to
look very similar, but they are not nearly as good.  However, if you have
never used one it may be okay for you.  I am plain spoiled by the older
model.

Quadius, what you are wearing looks like there is an ear loop?  Is this your
final pic, and if so, it is simply a Peachtree?

I purchased one and had difficulty with it, but it may be something that
wouldn't bother you.
Since I use a Peachtree headrest and it is rather firm in back, every time I
leaned my head back the back of the microphone move the boom and it became
uncomfortable, not to mention out of position. 

I received a less expensive headset with a bendable boom the other day and I
was wearing it around my neck with the boom turned up toward my mouth.  I
wore it for about four hours and it felt much more comfortable than the
behind the head microphones.  The most comfortable one I have worn so far is
the Plantronics CS 50 USB, but it has a battery life of eight hours.  If you
have the ability to take it off, it is definitely worth the money. 

I read something about the RadioShack behind the head microphone being
pretty decent and a lot less expensive than the high-end models offered on
some of the voice technology websites. 
Hope this helps, but I wouldn't go by my opinion alone.

This is a picture of the Plantronics mike on my face.  Please excuse the fat
face and scraggly gray hair.
