Jabra A125s Bluetooth iPod Adapter Review

Ok, just got it charged up and it seems to work well with my new 160GB iPod Classic and my slightly older Motorola s9's.
What I don't understand is why there seem to be various different versions of this Jabra BT adapter here on Amazon. There's this one (I purchased it and got one that turned out to be the A125s.), one called "Jabra Bluetooth Music Adaptor for Ipod," another called "Bluetooth iPod Adapter," and another called "A125 JABRA BLUETOOTH IPOD ADAPTOR." Kind of confusing!
Anyway, it's still a bit early to tell, but other then some immediate issues getting it paired, it seems to stay paired whether it gets unplugged or not. This is because the Jabra has a battery built into it. I used to have an iCombi iPod Bluetooth Adapter before this and it sucked it's juice directly out of the iPod's battery and so every time I unplugged it, and plugged it back in, it had to be paired again. There are obviously pluses and minuses to each approach.
The Jabra is more bulky then the iCombi. This is bad for obvious reasons, but it's also good in that it makes it more visible. The iCombi was so compact that it was easily lost in plain view! That's actually why I bought this - I lost my iCombi. It could actually be somewhere in my car or my house, but it's so small that it can hid really well! The picture here of the Jabra makes it look like it's wafer-thin, but in fact it is as thick as my 160GB Classic (or the older 60GB/80GB iPod Video).
The Jabra requires that you charge it in addition to your iPod and your BT headset. That's a lot of charging! So it's annoying and you have to deal with more chargers and batteries running out, etc. On the other hand, it's not depleting you iPod's battery, so especially when you're using it to watch videos, which take a lot of battery power, you know you're going to get your full X hours of video rather than something less.
The iCombi had some kind of fastener that made it so it would stay attached to the iPod and not come out unless you pressed these two buttons on its sides at the same time. The Jabra can be removed easily, and my skin case, even though it's just 1mm thick, makes it so the Jabra doesn't stick in very well. The slightest touch will make it come out. I'm going to have make a cut in that skin case to accommondate it!
The Jabra has a button on the side for added functionality which is good, except that I keep finding myself touching it inadvertantly and am wondering if that's going to cause problems down the road...
If I come up with any other feedback, I'll update this.
