Can anyone suggest a good noise cancelling wireless microphone for the iPhone 4 video?

We are sometimes picking up background noise in our video. Any suggestions?

    In the past, we did video slideshows using Ken Burns effect which adds a little movement to a still photo. Clients would narrate. Works well for YouTube for most of my client's products.

    I find the iphone great for audio naration using the iTalk app and editing everything on the iMac.

    However, want to use real video footage and so far we are bombing because of the noise factor. Currently we just use the video microphone "as is." On an iphone there are two modes . . . take a picture and shoot video. Very easy. The quality of the audio isn't good in crowded areas with a lot of noise or outside on a windy day.

    The iphone 4 has two microphones and the one on the top is noise cancelling. When the microphone is farther away as when you are recording video . . . doesn't kill the noise as well. Even though audio isn't great in these conditions . . . would say iphone 4 video audio is better then my old Flip video.

    What do you use for your wired microphone? Some of my clients could use wired microphones.

    I also use these mics as well and they are awesome. Especially for the price.

    2)Audio Technica ATR-35SAudio Technica ATR-35S (with my Kodak zi8 and Cannon HV30)
    3)Giant Squid Mic (for my Kodak zi8)

    I havent had a chance to test them out on my new iPhone 4 yet. But plan on doing so this week.
