Bluetooth headsets for mobile phones
You still use the mobile phone with the blue tooth head set, I have this set up and it's great, I have the use of both hands so I can keep on doing other things while I am talking through the blue tooth set.It automatically answers the phone for you and after a touch of the button on the side of the headset you can make a call just by talking .
bluetooth headset and mobile phone goes hand in hand. you can't activate bluetooth without the phone. but using bluetooth headset is better than grabbing your phone at your pocket to answer a call. there is a button on the headset and once you receive a call, just press it and start to talk. press it again after the conversation. there is also a limit of distance wherein you can place your cellphone at the table while you have the bluetooth in you. mine has a distance limit of 10meters away on clear area wherein i can receive the call even if the mobile is a bit away from me. depending on the type of your bluetooth headset. *please be aware that during driving car, you cannot use it as police officers will pull you over if you do so. just like you cannot use the cellphone too.
As they have already answered- you have to have a mobile phone for Bluetooth to work. But what someone said about it being illegal to use Bluetooth while driving. That is not true. In the US, the laws that are coming out are based to stop drivers from using their mobiles to talk while driving, and not having both hands free to drive. Bluetooth assists in keeping drivers safe and both hands free and on the steering wheel. People driving while using their mobiles to talk and or text while driving is getting out of hand and people are getting seriously injured or killed because people choose to be ignorant and NOT use a hands free device such as a Bluetooth headset. I never leave home without it ;)
