Thumbs up Finally, Voice Control System is avail!!!

I had my E500 in today for the V60 phone installation. I originally wanted the phone system with the Voice Control System, but was told it's not avail when I order it last week... Well, an hour after the car was there, I got a call from the Service Dept telling me they just got the Voice Control System in and wanted to know if I also wanted it installed?? You bet I do. I'll let you know how it all works.

Bottom line is for all those waiting for Voice Control for the "E's" the wait is over!

I believe it's tied to the Phone System?

bmms8: The voice control is associated with the V60 phone. While my dealer indicates that it works with the navigation as well, I remain skeptical until I receive my replacement in a month and a half and see it for myself!!!
