I just ordered a Plantronics 655 and I should have it in a day or so. I now see that there is apparently a difference between the Plantronics version and the RIM version. I had been checking the shopblackberry.com website for the past few week but it hasn't ever let me click on the headset (claiming something about "cookies"). There must be something wrong with the site because it doesn't work on any computer or browser I try.

Anyway, is the difference between the 2 devices merely in the firmware of the headset? If so, does anyone foresee an update for the plantronics version? Lastly, how much "better" is the rim version over the plantronics version?

I know there are other threads discussing some of this but it's a bit overwhelming and there must be others with similar questions to this.

Thanks...
