Integrate Blackberry with MB phone system
I have the MB phone system installed in my W210 but the phone was missing when I purchased the car. I am looking to find out if anyone has been successful integrating the Blackberry with the MB phone system. I have the Blackberry curve and am looking to integrate it with the MB system and get the Bluetooth functionality.
If anyone knows of a online vendor or DIY to make this happen kindly share your insight.

It will not work
Your BB will not work in MB W210.
Also there is No Blue tooth puck available for W210.
The best option for you is to use Parrot kit.
I have in my 1997 E-420 and it works great. I like the Voice Recognization System in Parrot that work great with my BB 8820 from ATT.
Which year is your W210?

You can get the Argos Bluetooth kit from eurocarphone.com or the bluetooth puck from wireless4mb.com.....Poster #2 does not know what he is talking about. I have the Argos unit and it works great with my Comand, and it also works with the non navigation radio as well.

People have had success using the wireless4mb bluetooth puck with the blackberry 88xx that might be a better option since you already have most of the phone hardware already installed in the car.

You should check out that thread for more information. You could save 300+ dollars by going with the puck instead of the argos.

Also...so you know, I have a BB curve...I just sold the Argos...which is a great unit. The phone book will not download on any smart phone I'm aware of with Argos ( I can't speak for the Treo, never tried one) It will however download with a Moto-blade. And you can rig up a BT puck. The only reason I sold the Argos, I'm upgrading my entire system. Brit let me know if your interested in a Command 2.0, My car only has 34K and the Command works and looks brand new. I also have the Dec 2006-2007 disks for the entire country.

I don't think so. MB Bluetooth Puck can not accept like 500-1000 contacts from your BB Curve or BB 8820 into MB V60 phone system.
Max you can do is only 100 contacts and it's also depend on if you can make BB Curve to Synch with your MB Bluetooth puck and V60 PSC/VOC system.
Good luck.
I don't know why some one want to waste $400-$500 for this type of installation.
Simple way will be get any bluetooth phone kit and correct harness to work with your MB car stereo system.

People pay 4-500 dollars for this type of installation because they would like the ability to use the factory steering wheel controls, cluster etc to be able to send and receive calls. Having a factory integrated system is well worth the price. I love the ability to be able to use all the functions of my phone with my headunit, I can even read SMS messages on my cluster. Try that with an aftermarket phone kit. I love the integration and its worth 4-5x the price I spent.
