Thus proving at least half my point. :)

The one with the external microphone is better at least in part because
the microphone is mounted +away+ from the speaker, and thus less
subject to feedback.

Also, being designed specifically for in-vehicle use it almost
certainly does have some kind of noise-cancellation circuitry the other
one lacks, being apparently designed primarily for indoor use.
