It's the same here in New York. The requirement, however, is for "hands-free" use of a phone, and you don't necessarily need a headset for that since you can also use the speakerphone function which is a feature of many phones. Moreover, there are many who do not want to move around with a headset attached, so it seems to me that for a phone to make it you must be able to answer a call by just picking it up.
