So your Bluetooth headset is able to let you hold conversations wirelessly and hands-free while you're behind the wheel, but how many of them are able to keep you entertained without being connected to a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone? Well, Brando's $64 BTM-318 headset offers a built-in FM radio that lets you groove to local DJs even when there is not a cell phone in sight, and you can store up to 12 station presets in its integrated memory. The rechargeable li-polymer battery is good for up to 8 hours and 12 hours of playback time for MP3 and FM radio, respectively. It will also boast a 15 meter operational range, but I would say remain within half that range just to be sure of a connection at all times.
