Media Interface Plus w/ Pandora - Bluetooth?

I just received a MI Plus for my 2010 S550. I was under the impression that pandora would wirelessly stream through bluetooth on on my iPhone 4 via the integration with MI Plus and Pandora.

While I can stream through bluetooth audio (both through the ipod app and the pandora app), but if I actually choose Pandora from the car's menu I get an error that device is disconnected.

Question is - shouldnt I be able to stream pandora through bluetooth and access it through the playlist/pandora selection in the car without having to plug my iphone physically into mi plus?

I do have the latest firmware. All devices are in sync (car to interface, car to phone, phone to interface).

Maybe to acess the pandora menu you have to physically plug the phone into mi plus, but that seems to defeat the point.

Bluetooth is a joke - it's ok for earpieces, not audio, and was never meant to do the things it's creators promised technically.

Apply elsewhere.

This isnt an issue of quality. Question is: should I be able to stream pandora from iphone 4 to mi plus using bluetooth - allowing for the playlist/pandora menu selection integration without having to directly plug the phone into mi plus.
