LOL at you guys. I wear mine around since I end up getting support calls from my customers and my PDA phone sucks as a handset. I try not to talk on it too long or while in line.

"Look how important I am! I have to have a Bluetooth headset!"

Complete and total TOOLS!

In the back of my mine i do chuckle and ask myself "SELF" why does that person have that in his ear. After all he's not talking to anyone. Is he trying to look important? Why not remove it if it's not being used? Oh well i guess i can't read the motives of other people but i'll bet it's the same thing that people do with cell phones. They talk to the headset but no-one's is on the other end. Ya gotta look important ya know.

I just got back from the gas station. While I'm standing there watching my wallet get raped at the pump, (btw...when did Shell change "$0.05 off Thursday" to Wednesday? ) a guy pulls up to the pump next to me, gets out of his Jeep, and is talking on his Bluetooth the entire time! I had to laugh out loud...I had just read this thread not 10 minutes prior and thought that I rarely see someone actually talking on the Bluetooth in their ear!

Oh come on. You know you were impressed........

But on a side note i was filling up last week and a woman got out of her car yelling to her caller. I said Excuse me Mam and i pointed to the good size sign on the pole above the gas pumps which warns customers about the explosion danger resulting from using cell phones while pumping fuel. Her eyes got as big as the wheels on her car and that ended that phone conversation.

Ok, I'm not one of those geeks that bluetooth-headset-chat themselves silly in public lines and stuff; but I do appreciate my BTH for 2 basic reasons: 1-) to answer calls while I'm driving, and 2-) anytime I need to make a call from my blackberry and I don't wanna feel like I'm holding an HP42C Calculator to my earlobe...

Use while driving fits the purpose. And supports driving laws

I had the wireless bluetooth headsets like four five years ago. I'm pretty much sick of them now. It's just old news.
