I think my headsets ring pretty much right away. There might be some lag, but I don't know if the headset lags by one full ring. IIRC it's pretty much simultaneous.

This isn't normal. I mean, I can only redial if I don't pull out my Blackberry but the headset works right away and there's no transferring necessary.

I have to power off/on the headset (so the Blackberry sees the Bluetooth connection as being lost) or turn off/on the Bluetooth in the Blackberry in order for the Bluetooth connection to be dropped.

This is normal. If you don't want the Bluetooth connection maintainted then you have to turn the headset off. This is one reason why the combined folding boom and power switch feature on the Motorola HS810 and the HS850 are really nice to have. It was very convenient to just fold the boom and pocket the headset when not on a call.
