What is this phone good for?

I'd like the ability to make calls from my Android phone via Bluetooth. Don't really think I want this old phone setup. It is supposed to have voice command, but I'm not sure how that works. can I get rid of this?

Advice?

Awesome. Just spoke with Brian over there and ordered the iTronic BT plus iPod Upgrade. Hopefully I'll be able to install it next week. Thanks guys!

Three follow up questions...

1. When I install the iTronic BT/iPod module, does it eliminate the 6-disc CD changer? If so, I'll need to buy that sunglass cubby thingie.

2. Is the supplied microphone required? The car has some type of voice command so there should be a mic somewhere already, no?

3. Lastly, is it hard to remove that corded V60 cradle? I'd like to reclaim that space and have it look finished without any holes in there.

Advice?

The car's mic is of poor quality actually, so although you could use it, you find ours to be much better. It can be installed inside the mirror if desired.
Bluetooth has no effect on the changer, but iPod is a swap for changer functionality.
The V60 cradle comes out quite easily.
