That's for a bluetooth headset. If you don't have one or have bluetooth turned off, it will be grayed out on your menu.

Just wondering about this myself. Is it like the speakerphone control that you can only enable when the phone is being actively used? (I use the PPC all the time and the phone very little.)

There are 2 bluetooth profiles associated with headsets: Headset and Handsfree. Some bluetooth headsets support only the headset profile, others support the handsfree also by using a slightly different pairing procedure. The Jabra BT250v, for example, supports handsfree by holding down the volume up and MFB instead of just the MFB when pairing. The simply lets you redial by holding the MFB, answer call waiting with the MFB, or start a new line/place your party on hold with the MFB. I believe there are a couple other features but those are what I can remember.

I understand now..

I have a cheap OPlantronics headset, and probably need to get a better headset.

Is there a list of the headsets that work with this phone?

I have a BT250v and when I do a standard pairing it shows as Hands Free on the phone. I cannot do the things that you mentioned with it however when hitting the MFB. Biggest complaint is that I cannot answer call waiting. Can you give me any more information on how that works for you?
