I was considering buying a bt headset for my new treo and was wondering where most people put the headset when they are not using it.
Would these not break if you simply kept yanking these in and out of your pocket.

please do tell.

Most people I know just keep them on their ears, but I have seen some come with a neck strap and / or the users use something to "hang" them around their neck. I have seen holders for the vehicles...some come with cradle holders as well. There are cases out there big enough to fit one in the "pocket"

I use the Sony Ericsson HBH-660 and it came with a neck strap that snaps in.. if it weren't for this, I would have probably washed my headset a while ago.

I guess Bluetooth is still quite new to a lot of folks, because people ask me what it is.

I keep mine, Plantronics M2500, in my shirt pocket or on my ear so I can look like my avatar.

Wow, the 2500 is a BIG headset.

I didn't think I'd want a bluetooth headset as I was very used to my wired one. However, the Black Friday sale and rebate at Radio Shack made it cost $10 so I figured I'd try it.

Read that some others don't like it but it's LOUD and clear on my 650. I've been told that it doesn't sound like I'm using a headset at all, too. So I'm happy.

It's only big when I duck/duct tape a 9v battery to it. Once I get the rest of it rigged for the laser and implants for full-time communication with the collective...

One of the reasons I purchased the Plantronic Discovery 640 was that is comes with a holder/charger that is shaped like a pen. I keep the holder either in my pants pocket, jacket pocket, or shirt pocket ( but that looks nerdy )and can easily put the headset there when I do not need it. Plus it can charge my headset while it is in there as the holder doubles as a batter-powered charger.
