TODAY'S TOP STORY

- Best Bluetooth Headsets For Business
Bluetooth headsets eliminate clumsy wires, boost productivity and, with more states requiring hands-free devices in vehicles, have become required equipment for businesspeople on the go. Vendors offer a dizzying array of headsets, differentiated by price, battery-life, weight and clarity. Many of today's headsets are multipoint, allowing use for both desktop and mobile phones. Developers also look to separate themselves from their competition through software or hardware design elements designed to reduce ambient sound and improve sound quality. In addition, Bluetooth headsets must be somewhat rugged to withstand long hours of usage and frequent removal and replacement. We culled through the thicket of features, noise-cancelling technologies and battery-life claims to find 13 of the best models for business.

- Microsoft Sues Motorola Over Android Patent Violations
By Ed Hansberry
Late last week Microsoft filed a patent infringement suit in federal court in Washington state. The suit alleges that Motorola is violating nine Microsoft patents in its Android implementation. Apple is suing HTC over Android and Oracle is suing Google directly. Android is not only popular with consumers, but lawyers too.

- Striving For A Higher Quality Application Store
By Ed Hansberry
Apple is the undisputed king of apps in its online store for the iPhone with the App Store, at least when it comes to the number of apps for sale. RIM isn't interested in competing at that level. Will shooting for a higher quality selection make an online market more popular than one with a bewildering selection?
