Need a BT headset that won't accidentally redial

Got a new H500 bluetooth headset (my first experience with bluetooth), which I am using with a Razr V3m from Verizon. But I was horrified to discover that the headset has a last number redial feature that is very easy to accidentally redial just by tapping it inadvertantly either by hand or even if it's in your pocket. I'm making calls I don't even know about now!

Accidental redialing is unacceptable to me, and one of the main reasons I've always used flip phones was to prevent such things. Can anyone recommend a BT headset that will work with my phone but NOT accidentally redial the last number?

I love my Motorola H700. I have it paired with my Samsung A920 with SPRINT NEXTEL. If I just tap the H700 button once, it activates VoiceSignal's Voice Command feature. I have to hold the H700 button down for about 3 seconds to redial the last number I called.

Sounds like the H700 would be similar to the H500 -- if I lean on it or press it for more than two seconds, it's going to redial... Damn. Anyone else have thoughts or sugestions?

Yeah. Don't put it in your pocket. Or find one that has a headset holster. Then you could put it right on your belt.

Being unable to put the headset in my pocket or having to use a headset holster are not great solutions. Anyone have any good ideas or other headset recommendations?

You should realistically look at the H700. The boom on it flips in to the speaker putting it into a power reserve. I don't have confirmation as to whether or not it will still dial out, but I highly doubt it. Worth the look, though.

Thanks. I probably will check out the 700 and see if it solves the problem. You folks think that's a good headset in general?

HS 850 does the same thing.
