    Dell is selling the BH200 (Wireless bluetooth headset) for $80 while the Steelseries is $70. Now which one do I get?

    I'll be a college bound student who will probably use these headsets a lot, so it'd be greatly appreciated to help me determine which will be best.

    I'll be buying a TV tuner as well, and I'll be using the headset (to talk) most likely everyday, so i thought the wireless freedom of the BH200 would prove to be useful.

    But there arn't any reviews of the BH200 so I can't really evaluate if it is worth buying over the Steelseries 5H.

    Thanks!

    Personally, I've found Bluetooth to be very...erratic...at times. Not to mention its limited to about a 5-10 foot range. Is there a wireless USB version, or a wired version?
