Which Blue Tooth headset??

Mods, I'm posting it here since people view this section more and I figure I'd get better input.

I've just switched from sprint to Verizon. I now have the Motorola E815 and looking to get a bluetooth headset. Here are my options:

1) OEM Motorola bluetooth, the newer version $70

2) Jabra BT800 $100

3) Cardo Scala 500 $36

if anyone has better choices I will be open to them. Any opinions, comments, or suggestions appreciated. Fire Away.

The motorola headsets are very awesome and highly rated. The BT800...the thing is huge, talk about a horsepill but the sound quality is very decent.

i have the older HS850 and my gf has the newer HS850 (black one) and they're great with Moto phones. can't say the same for non-Moto phones (treo 650) but since you have Moto phone it should work flawless. BTW the HS850 (black) doesn't come with a lanyard so you can hang your BT headset around your neck when not in use, don't know if that matters to you
