iPhone intergration

I am wondering if I get the bluetooth module does it work with the iPhone and if I buy the ipod kit does it work with the iPhone using the command and can I do both at the same time?

the bluetooth should work fine put the ipod kit will only allow you to play the songs on the iphone and if you have the 3G iphone it wont charge with the ipod kit

So with my iPhone 2G I can't use the command system to view song titles and change songs?

For the bluetooth phone option, does it download your iPhone 2G contact list and display it in the command?

I think I'm going to pass on the iPod kit since I need to make calls while I listen to my music, plus its expensive. I guess i'll just stick with the AUX.

What about the iPhone 2.0 software and the bluetooth kit, does it download the phonebook?

I have a W211 - so not sure if my experience will mirror.

I have a 3G iPhone, bluetooth with puck and iPod kit.

Phonebook downloads onto Command screen and my instrument cluster. I can place/recieve calls through both the Command and steering wheel controls. I can also play songs from my iPhone. Song titles only display on my instrument cluster. I can control the songs through my steering wheel buttons.

If I'm playing songs, and a call comes in, it automatically mutes the song. I think it's well integrated.

As a previous poster stated, I don't think I can charge my phone when it's plugged into the ipod kit. I get a message on the phone saying as such.

Both were installed by MBenzNL - great guy to work with.
