Just invested in Mikbox
I finally ordered mine today, for the CLK55 first and I will do the E55 later. I can't stand high schoolers making fun of my antiquated Timeport any longer, and not keeping up with the technology. Once the Mikbox gets here, I will charge into the Verizon store and pick 2 Motorola E815s and join the digitial age. Now for those of you who had ordered the Mikbox, how long did it take to recieve your kits? And is the Mikbox and cradle kit all I needed? The E815 will also work with my Lexus, except phonebook transfer 
The Mikbox should work well for the next 2 years until I get a new Benz with bluetooth.

I just installed the Mikbox today in the E55, the wife wanted in the E55 first 
It took about 45 minutes and it work immediately with my new Moto E815. I did have to program the Mikbox to do auto power up/shut down with the ignition and that took only seconds. Very impress so far. I may have to take the plunge for the CLK soon because I can't stand not having handfree-phone in my car.

Hold on to your Motorola ponies, in December we should see in America a new Motorola SLVR L7, (but comes in black only) that blows away the Razr.

Moto announce the SLVR in Feb 05 and it probably won't be out until Jan 06. I gave up waiting and went with the RAZR. The only real improvement the SLVR has in the built in memory card slot. Nice phone, but c',mon, is it really worth the wait?

The SLVR (Sliver, not Silver - for thinness) are candy-bar form factor iTunes capable phones that seem to replace the ROKR. Quaintly, they lack headphone jacks, so you get to buy a BT headset at extra cost.
