What is the best Bluetooth stereo headset for iPhone 3G?

I am looking for a great Bluetooth stereo headset to use with my iPhone 3G. I currently have V-Moda Vibe Duo headphones, but one side has quit working. Since iPhone 3G now has stereo Bluetooth support I wanted to get one of those.
I want some thing that has great music quality. This is the most important thing to me. I have heard that Bluetooth headsets can't compare with corded headphones. Is there really going to be that much of a difference? And is there some place I could go to try out one before I buy?
The second most important thing is that I need to be able to put it in my pocket. The Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 is great but doesn't have near enough battery life for me.
I listen to my iPod way too much so I need something with good battery life, but I would be willing to fall back on my mono V-Modas when it is charging.
Call quality doesn't matter; I don't like talking on the phone.
I want it took look as good as my V-Moda, but this isn't required.
Price doesn't really matter to me, but I don't really wanna pay more than $150
Is there anything that is out right now that fits everything I want? or should I wait a few months since iPhone support for stereo bluetooth will probably cause more headsets to hit the market? if anyone has a bluetooth headset please share your experience with it.
Thanks for all suggestions

i suggest you buy motorola s9 which is around 50 bucks or the newer motorola s9 HD,around 80 bucks.
I have the motorola s9 and the sound quality is great!
there's only one tiny issue with all the stereo bluetooth headsets out there and the 3.0 OS.
the forward and backward buttons do not work so you'll have to change the track manually from your iphone.
that has to do with the bluetooth protocol that apple did not intergrate with the new 3.0 and i guess will fix it with the new update in 3.1 later this month.
other than that, this headset is simply awesome, trust me
hope i helped :)

I am charging my new Motorola S9 HD right now!
I tried it out for a minute and it has a little bit of distortion if you turn it up about half way or more
but below that it is fine and thats where I usually listen
It stays on my head very well even when I am headbanging!
thanks for the answer!
