We're probably strange in that we're just not blindly leaping ahead and saying, oh boy MBZ has a cell phone we can get in our car, but are instead saying here's the cell phone we're going to use, now somebody find us a way.

So we're committed to working with Steve since it looks like his phone kit is the way we were seeking. Getting the install kit and UHI we need when it becomes available is for us a good way to go, even if we have to wait a few months for the UHI to be commonly available.

...
You're not alone at all. I'm about to put an order in for an E320 CDI for European Delivery and I choose my mobile handsets only after exhaustive research. My 300E had a globalstar satellite phone for the past 8 years (complete with taxi lamp-sized antenna), which I'm willing to dispense with when I get the new car, but my Bluetooth Nokia 6600 will not leave my hand except under duress. I will not downgrade from that delightful handset to 1990s Motorola technology just to fit a car kit. I'm frustrated, because I'm about to have to specify my order preferences. I would like real integration and voice control, but I may have to settle for an aftermarket bluetooth car kit and only stereo muting.

To any of the product designers out there: finding a way to support bluetooth is arguably the most straightforward path to support of multiple phones from multiple vendors. You'd also be my personal hero.

Why can't MB just add Bluetooth into their Command. I tried both my V600 with Cingular and V710 with Verizon on my friend's Acura RL and both worked flawlessly. The only disadvantage is you'd need a carcharger to charge the phone if the battery is low.
