In-the-ear headsets (WAS: "Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group good mic muf")

Looks to me like what Clarity Aloft offers is one of those in-the-ear (rather than over the ear) headsets.

I have some doubt that that would make any difference in the wind noise being picked up in the mic as their mic would be basically no different than any other headset mic.

But it does raise something I'm curious about:
Anyone here have any experience using any of those headsets that plug IN your ears? Their supposed advantage is they should be great at keeping cockpit noise out of our ear and be much lighter and less bulky than traditional headsets.
If so, wonder why they're not popular. They're costly, but so are the top end conventional headsets that I see widely used.
