Strange bluetooth handsfree behavior with 6682

So I use a Moto HF800 bluetooth speaker in the car with my 6682. Works perfectly well except that after a while, it doesn't connect to my 6682 as a Handsfree (though the 6682 shows bluetooth as connected to something). I found that if I restart the phone it works fine but it's kind of annoying since I tend to leave my phone on all day. I don't see problems like this when I connect to my Mac with the phone so I'm not entirely sure the phone is the culprit but restarting it fixes it. Anyone seen this behavior before? I have a Cingular branded one with the latest firmware and aside from this, it's been trouble free.
 
Did you try just turning Bluetooth on and off instead of the entire phone? I've had probelems with all Bluetooth if I try to use a connection for an extended period of time, including my computer.
 
to add to the thread, I found i had an old firmware (4.62) and a coworker had recently purchased a data cable for her 6682. She brought it in so I could borrow it and I was able to update my firmware to 4.65 (I did it at work since I have a Mac at home). So far, the problem hasn't popped up and the bluetooth connection with the HF800 seems more stable. Keeping my fingers crossed
 
Just wanted to update the thread, the bluetooth issue has not occurred once since upgrading the firmware nearly two months ago. So if anyone else has this problem grab the firmware update and the USB cable!
