To be honest, I can't justify buying a bluetooth headset. The starting
prices are 5 times more than the car holder, and I also think scrambling
around to put the headset on in rush hour traffic would be as dangerous
as.. oh, I dunno... trying to control the clutch with my willy while doing
75mph on a motorway. :-)

That's all a matter of experience. HBH-15 was extremely simple, but
now HBH-30 is all the same.
But as a backup (when headset battery runs low) I use the wired
earpiece. How about that?

I'm listening about your headsets. Look at
http://www.cellularaccessory.com/bluetoothheadsets.html
row 2 column 2 That's what you use?
Any other recommendations?
I use cark-91's and I think I really want a BT speakerphone in the car.
Consensus is use the BT headset.

Yes.

Sorry, no, for a very simple reason: /// was the first to offer BT
phones here in Austria, and so they were the first to offer BT
headsets over here. HBH-15 inconvenience was a rather low standby
time and the fact that you needed its craddle to charge it. HBH-30
now is quite OK (except for mounting, which is quite a hassle
compared to HBH-15, but now I'm quite used to it), so I never
tried any other device.

Ther's another reason that is so evident I didn't think of it: For
another BT headset I'd need another charger & an extra car charger.
