He also said that if your COMMAND locks up, it is not covered under warranty because you didn't use an approved phone. For you guys that are using "unapproved" phones, is this true? Do you have any call quality issues?

Forgot to mention that i have had the MB BT for about a month and it works great. I have had a few instances where i used the i button to check traffic and it uses the built in phone to make the call. When the call ends the internal phone won't disconnect properly and so the MB BT won't turn on. The only solution i have found is to pull over and restart the car. I will update once I get the dealer to look at this, but my guess is they will not find anything...

I just ordered the bluetooth adaptor today for the new E55 that will come in next week. It costs me $350 and I was told my Moto E815 is compatible. It looks like my bluetooth adaptor will arrive before my new car. www.wireless4mb.com is very pleasant to deal with. I will report back how things work once I have it working.

It looks like I'll have everything installed (MHI and BT) by Monday afternoon. I'm going test it with a Samsung i730 (Pocket PC) and the Verizon RAZR (which is not on the list of compatible phones). I already have the puck in hand and am waiting until Monday to get the MHI kit installed. Since it seems that nobody has tried the RAZR on this board, I'll report back and let everybody know.

i thought MB is using OBEX to allow phone downloading, but i believe that to be not true anymore as some phones will have their phones downloaded and do not have the OBEX stack.
