I've been using cellphones since I was 20. Maybe that's later than others, and now that I think of it, I haven't been using cellphones that long (compared to others). But ever since I've had a cellphone, I always tried to use headsets. I am not exagerrating when I say I still have not had one headset that I've kept. Either they don't sit in my ear comfortably, or they're just too much trouble for me to use. I've tried nearly every kind and I haven't kept one.
The kind of headset that I prefer is the non-bluetooth kind. I don't mind the cord attached to my phone, it's just seems easier than attaching a huge earpiece to my ear and clicking a button when you want to activate your ear piece or deactivate. My current phone is the Palm Centro (which I love). And I tried the bluetooth, and hated it. Then I ordered the original earbud (which attaches to my phone) on freeheadset.org and to my dismay did not work with my phone (even though the site said it would). So now I given up, and just refrain from using my phone in the car.
I recently found an article on ehow.com titled, How to Choose the Best Cell Phone Headset, although I haven't tried any of its tips yet, I thought I'd share the article with you. Maybe it can help you find a good headset for yourself. These were the author's tips:
1) Set a price range
2) Know the feature that are important to you in a headset
3) Chose a cellphone headset that suits your personality (bluetooth did not fit mine)
4) Make sure your new headset is comfortable (my old ones kept sliding off my ear)
