The idea behind the blue tooth technology was to allow short-distance communication between various devices. It was never planned to be to communicate over longer distances. The blue tooth headset was one of the first innovations that used blue tooth, and is now in the lead of the short distance communication standards. Wearing a blue tooth headset, makes a person able to answer their blue tooth-enabled cell phone without having to tangle with any kind of wires. This is often practical. It I so simple; just walk and talk.
Infrared is another short range technology, which enables to user to make his devices communicate with eachother. However, it has huge drawbacks. You need a direct line-of-sight, and the distance between the devices must be extremely short, maybe not even more than four inches. A Bluetooth headset however, can normally operate up to 30 feet from the transmitter.
Many of the blue tooth headsets used in conjunction with cell phones only got mono capabilities, keeping one ear free for what is going on around you. Nevertheless, stereo blue tooth headsets are available for when stereo capabilities is desirable. It is your choice.
