Anyone use a Sprint V3M & Bluetooth?

I just bought a '08 S550 and have a Sprint V3M. Can this be used with the AWS cradle (preferable) or MHI bluetooth module? I've left a couple messages with AWS...no callback yet.

Check the pdf available through their site at http://www.wireless4mb.com/MB.pdf - they finally posted it after many, many calls like yours.

Sprint's firmware has not been too friendly to the MB phone system. At this time, the only Sprint phone shown compatible is the Blackberry 8830 with Sprint/Verizon firmware 4.2.2.66. As to the V3M, only the Verizon firmware NEWC_01.05.0A and NEWC_01.09.02 are shown as compatible.

In addition, if you plan to stay with the RAZR, note that the RAZR Bluetooth/dock combination will not allow the MOTORAZR V3xx, RAZR2 V9, or RAZR MAXX V6 to be docked. However, these phones should work (with compatible firmware) if you use the puck instead of the dock.

Yes it will work, phonebook will load. Not sure about SPEED DIAL.
