Smile Bluetooth on 01 CL500
I recently contacted www.wireless4mb.com and www.mikbox.com and was told that a Bluetooth solution is due out by this January. I myself have an 01 CL500 with the Timeport. From what I was told, this would be a full integration with the vehicle (Voice dial & Address mgmt). My wife and I both have Bluetooth enabled phones and mine is a Blackberry so switching was not an option. This is great news for us . I tried my phone on a BMW 545 with Bluetooth capabilities and it worked great.

I was going to buy an official MB Nokia phone and swap SIM cards everytime I entered the vehicle. After hearing this, the wireless4mb rep then told me about the upcoming Bluetooth product. We shall see....

Will it work with all MBs? I have a bluetooth smartphone as well and really dont feel like running wires or having some gawdy aftermarket bluetooth adapter in the car.

I don't see why not. It should work across the model line. I was told it would require an upgrade to one of the modules though (for tri-band I guess). They didn't release much info; just that Bluetooth WOULD be available sometime around January 06.

Thanks for the info. SWEET install by the way .

I contacted them not too long ago about some phone kit and I think it was the UHI. Said I need a custom install because it's never been done on an 01CL500. That would be kind of a pain since I'm in NJ . I'm probably going to order the kit and have a tech over here install it for me.

Sweet. That's what I was looking for. Hopefully he'll be back here when it's available.
