seems like rim's specs never explain what version the bluetooth is, as i have heard that the HS850's features won't be maximized if the bluetooth version is not 1.2. i'm guessing the 7250's version for bluetooth should be the same as the 7290, so anyone has any feedback on the HS850 with their 7290(or 7250?)

I've been running a HS850 on my 7290 fora few weeks. No problems. I got a couple of weeks out of my first battery charge with light standby time and several "long" conversations.

I sure like it a LOT better than the plantronics behind the ear model.

well if this is true, then the benefits of the HS850 won't really matter.. anyone have any experience on both headsets on one device for comparison?

According to the review over at mobileburn - http://www.mobileburn.com/review.jsp?Id=972 - the battery life is siginificantly improved even without 1.2
