Of course VR OFF is blurred, the subject changed poses from VR ON and caused it to blur!
Geez!

your handheld technique with the 500 would have let you get a sharp shot with that puny 200 wouldnt it Darryl?

Not in lowlight steve, VR is allows you to get handheld shots at low shutter speeds and that's all I'd ever use it for. So instead of using 1/250 or 1/500 for perched shots handheld you could use 1/125 or 1/160.

I'd be disappointed if I couldn't get a reasonably steady shot at 1/50 handheld @200, or even 1/5sec @ 18 should be quite doable - I just tried that and no real problems with my kit lens.
I think the real test would be 1/10 @ 200

Paul, it will be possible but how consistant is another matter entirely. Even with VRI it wasn't gauranteed to give you a sharp shot every time. It just increased the chances.
