Sony DR-BT1 headset released

This has got to be one of the oddest looking devices we've seen in a long time—like a rorschach test for gadget freaks (we'll say it looks like the Quake III logo). Believe it or not, it's a headset for Bluetooth-enabled cellphones. The device, which fits on either ear, is powered by a rechargable built-in lithium-ion battery and Sony claims it will give you a 32-foot range.  Neat enough, but the $130 price tag is a bit steep even for us.

That thing looks more like a wine bottle opener than a headset
