Its host phone got signed off
a few weeks ago, but it turns out that the Bluetooth headset that's stowed away inside Verizon's upcoming VX8610 needs its own, independent FCC scrutiny. Makes sense, we suppose, seeing how it's a full fledged RF device in its own right. It's an exciting concept, no question, but you have to wonder what kind of battery life is going to get sucked out of the mothership when the headset needs charging -- if the headset can actually charge without the phone being plugged into the wall. Guess we'll have to wait a bit longer to find out.

That's a picture of the HEADSET, as in BLUETOOTH HEADSET--the thing that goes in your ear. It'll charge using the phone's battery and also the AC adapter.

I'm confused. We think this is a detachable Bluetooth headset? Is that a picture of the headset or the handset?

If anything this is the bluetooth headset. I have a Motorola headset that looks familiar to this. The big round thing on the top is what you put into your ear, there is two tabs on the lower left side (those are for volume). The pin connectors is used for charging when it is docked.
