They never really show acceleration and deceleration onboard a spaceship affecting the crew so why bother with seat belts (that would be a pain for the actors to use)? Besides what good would they do if you actually hit something large in space at the speed of light.

Handheld phasers would be cool if somebody comes up with a batter that hold crazy amounts of energy and would not short out in your pocket.
