Hello! As you probably wouldn't pay $200 to avoid wind noise
on a $100 microphone, you may appreciate this DIY system
using a $5 "hand glove for car windshield cleaning" (sorry
but I don't know the exact name in English for this kind of
thing). That's pretty useful and surprisingly good-sounding.
You can see (and hear) it on those pages:

If you can't read French you may use an automatic translator
like <http://babelfish.altavista.com>. Strange results, but
it helps anyway.
