Default Garmin & Phone?? What headset/radio?!

My wife got me a Garmin Zumo. Generous gift but, think I'll rarely use it except maybe on long trips...selective moments ("gotta get gas NOW or YESTERDAY") if you know what I mean... That said, now I gotta figure out what earphones/headset I should mate it with. Would want something could use my Bluetooth phone w/ too if I'm dropping coin! I like small & easily removable too! Any thoughts?(other than "get rid of that thing!!". Remember, it's a gift from the wife!)

I'm running the Zumo 550 with an iPhone and Scala Rider Q2 headset - works very well together.

08 anniv Deluxe, also looking for a mounting option with MINIMAL HARDWARE left on the bike when the GPS is NOT mounted up! DON'T like the look on my nostalgiac machine! Don't get me wrong, happy to have it for the occassion I might need it, just not all the time!

Scala seems a little bulky, no?

It's alright if we do it. Besides, it gives the cagers something to bitch about on their forums.
