Cell phone and headset Updated January 12, 2006 You may be chained to your desk, but that doesn't mean you have to be chained to your cell phone as well. With a cell phone headset, you can talk all you want while keeping your hands free for other tasks. It's best, however, that you avoid the free headsets that come with your phone and invest in something that will provide the best sound clarity. For going completely wireless, a Bluetooth headset will give you the freedom to move around your work space as you wish. The Tekkeon EzTalker Mini Bluetooth headset boasts a comfortable fit and decent sound quality, while the *innovative Plantronics Discovery 640 Bluetooth utilizes multiple charging options.* Treo lovers can buy a dedicated headset with the PalmOne Treo 650 wireless headset, and the GN Netcom GN 6210 can connect to a mobile and a landline phone. If you don't have Bluetooth, it doesn't matter--you can still get great call quality with the innovative Aliph Jawbone.

| Review summary | The Tekkeon EzTalker Mini headset does all the things a Bluetooth headset should, and it does them well. | The Plantronics Discovery 640 is a well-performing Bluetooth headset that offers first-class usability. | Treo 650 users looking to make good use of their Bluetooth should check out PalmOne's wireless headset. | The GN Netcom GN 6210 has a comfortable fit and some attractive features, but its sound quality and performance could be improved. | If you're looking for a cool, wired headset and have the cash, you can't go wrong with Aliph's Jawbone. |
