Proposed is a headband used to strap a cell phone on the side of the user's face. The preferred embodiment would resemble either a U-shaped headband with a clip on side side (similar to a call center headset), or it might involve two velco straps that wrap around the user's head for greater stability (like a dog harness). It would result in only one battery to worry about, easier configuration, greater wireless security, known call quality before the product is purchased, compatibility with a wide range of devices, and most importantly, very low cost. Throw a few goofy celebrities on TV using one, and the stigma of the absurd would turn into a fashion statement.
