I have a nice bluetooth headset and I have nice (wired) noise cancelling head phones and now I would like to combine these into one device.

I want decent noise cancelling but a little ambient noise is OK. Good battery life would be nice (rechargeable or batteries is fine).

I listen to some music and podcasts. Sometimes I use the NC to block out ambient noise at work -- I was recently moved near a high traffic area and I need to block out the hallway conversations.

I have looked at the Parrot Zik, Sennheiser 550 and 500, Sony and Logitech. It's not clear how good these are and I am not aware of a local store that will allow me to take a closer look.

Any and all suggestions appreciated!
