Bluetooth Phone Upgrade

I had a "bluetooth puck" MB OEM in my 05 E320. I recently replaced it with a Viseeo MB-4 similar style puck. The difference is amazing. The volume has increased by about 50% with much greater clarity on outgoing calls. Installation is very easy. I initially had a problem loading the phone book from my Verizon Droid Pro. The problem was that the Viseeo sent a message to the phone asking for the phone book. It shows up in the notification bar of the Droid and is very quick. I missed it. Unless you pull down the notification bar and allow it, the upload will fail. It can also time out if you don't pull it down promptly. Once I allowed it on the Droid the phone book loaded perfectly. Had to turn stuff off and re-pair to finally get everything working. Thanks to previous posters as this quick notification was mentioned a while back. That's what makes forums great.

Hi,

I have just been advised that the owner of Cartronics passed away on March the 8th resulting in the closure of the business. IB advertising will attempt to confirm the status of the company today. You might consider filing a paypal dispute or credit card charge back to protect yourself. Thanks.

What?? I hope not! Horrible personal news, plus some good products now unavailable as it were.

I sincerely hope this news is just a temp setback for them.
