I have a really nice Bluetooth "headset" that is made by Toyota. Instead of
looking dorky it actually looks very cool - I have gotten all kinds of
compliments on it. One advantage of it is that instead of wearing it on your
head you climb inside it, so you won't have to worry about it mussing your
hair or anything like that. In addition to giving you hands-free Bluetooth
cell phone capabilities it also comes with a GPS-based navigation system and
a gasoline-electric drive-train which allows this Bluetooth headset to even
physically transport you between locations very efficiently (approx. 50
miles for each gallon of unleaded gasoline you put in it). Since I'm still
stuck with a Treo 600 myself and haven't had a chance to upgrade to the Treo
650 yet I haven't had a chance to try the Bluetooth capabilities yet, but
from what I understand it works very well (all kinds of threads on
www.treocentral.com and www.priuschat.com about it). I can't comment on the
Mac compatibility of this device. Only downside that I can think of is that
this Bluetooth device costs around $26,000.

Subject: [internetworkers] bluetooth headsets?

I've been Skypeing a bit with my powerbook lately and sometime in the 
future I'll be upgrading my Treo 600 to a 650. So after avoiding using 
bluetooth for anything, I now have a couple of reasons to try it out.

What headsets have you guys tried and liked or not liked? Which ones don't 
work well with the Mac or with the Treo?

Which ones looks less dorky when you are talking to your invisible 
friends?
