Apple Bluetooth headset
Apple's website now reveals that the company is planning to offer a "new, remarkably compact Bluetooth headset." The company offers no further details about the headset, but notes the iPhone's Bluetooth 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) technology as a feature of the forthcoming device. Apple hasn't offered a Bluetooth headset of its own in the past, instead linking to such products as Logitech's USB Headset 250 and Plantronics .Audio 85 USB Headset via its online store to accommodate customer needs. The debut of an Apple-branded Bluetooth headset would expand the company's growing list of accessories, which saw unprecedented success last year after Apple reported a record quarter.

Other than the fact that Apple accouned this at the iPhone unveiling and showed a picture of it....I guess it's still news.

Bluetooth head set

Steve Jobs already showed the headset in his keynote. It is a single ear headset for phone calls, not a stereo head set.

Libraryguy and Heymike2 are correct, this is for the iPhone and was already covered in January's keynote... no news here. Apparently no one from macnn.com watched they keynote?

that they wouldn't remember the picture from the keynote, but it was only mentioned in passing and that was over a month ago so let's go easy on em ... it wasn't the focus.
