I'm aware of the Sennheiser windshields.  I used to operate Senn gunmics 
with and without Senn. windshields for years when I was a BBC employee. 
  I remember when, about 10 or 12 years ago, we got our first Rycotes as 
replacements for knackered Sennheisers.  I agree with Walt - the Senns 
are better, and by some margin.

However, I imagine Senn windshields are only suitable for Sennheiser 
mics, or mics of an extremely similar dimension, and if anyone thinks 
Rycotes are expensive (like I do), then the price of Sennheisers would 
be truly shocking.  I value the relative reliability of my blood pump 
too much to risk looking at the Sennheiser windshield price list.
