Bluetooth headsets are a nifty way to stay connected while keeping your phone safely in your purse or pocket, but they are difficult to shop for, as each set has pluses and minuses. Some are great outdoors in howling wind, while others allow for voice commands, and some just look cool stuck to the side of your head as you peruse jumbo bags of beef jerky at Costco. CNET editor Nicole Lee has compiled a handy list of top-performing Bluetooth headsets and details their strong points. You know you need one--just so you don't miss that superimportant call the next time you're waiting in line for a sample of Kirkland pasta salad.
