I love the charging cradle at the accessories store at crackberry.com. It's silver and has a lit BB symbol at the bottom. Worth the $19.99 to always have your phone charging, sitting upright at your desk.

The best bluetooth headsets I have found are from Plantronics. I tried many back when I had a job, and settled on the Voyager 520. Sure it's more expensive than many you can get... but it's comfortable, easy to slip on, and sounds good.
Bluetooth headset = "I'm a dickhole" sign

Has humankind really not progressed past the point that we need to hold little boxes up to the side of our head, thus taking up one whole hand and forcing us to participate exclusively in one-handed activities?
