Phone Hookup Options 2007 E350

I'm trying to figure out what options I have to hookup a phone in my '07 E350. I know I have the UHI system (MHI in North America). I attached a pic of the connector that I have in my center box.

Can I connect a cradle to this? It appears the cradles or limited to specific phones?

Can I do bluetooth? If so, what connector do I need and will it work with any bluetooth compatible phone?

Thanks

I hope this link works:

There are too many different phone models that MB could have a cradle for each. Those are mainly for the most popular models.

BT exists in several different forms. Compatibility is wider than MB reports but the main points probably are that BT SAP is mainly supported by Nokia models (a new BT adapter supports RIM in BT SAP mode but this is not for the W211) and phone book download does not work from all phone models (can be restricted to SIM memory only).

Thanks so much! This really helps. Since I have two phones, one for work and one personal. I guess Bluetooth will be the only way to go.

One of my phones is a Blackberry 8310. I see there is a cradle for this but my other phone is a Samsung SGH-A767 Propel. Is it correct to assume MB does not have a cradle for this phone?

The current list seems to have two Samsung cradles, for models SGH-D600 and SGH-E720.

I searched a couple of threads here and on benzworld.org and it appears folks have success with the Viseeo unit.
