Thumbs up

Hi,
there was a post before the forum crashed from someone with pics, showing his ipaq connected to the DVD-nav via bluetooth. So I think if you purchase the bluetooth phone, it is possible.

So far

I read a motoring article a while back that stated MB didn't believe Bluetooth is the way of the future and that was why they had not included it in their design.....or was this just an excuse?

I would love it if my baby had blue tooth compatability. Imagine using it with a o2 XDA II!...wow!

Its pathetic. From what I can tell, we won't have it. Cars half this price have these amenities and then some, standard! (read: acura). I'm sure it will be available in distant future, and we could integrate it somehow.

MB does not have it, likely because they want to sell the integrated phone at a steep price.

this is the way to go:

but I don't know how well it can be integrated, especially muting the sound system.

Helpful Info

NYCA,

Thanks for the post. I'll check into it. MB phones are simply too high to justify...and with limited features.

Just check out this link. Too bad we can't get MB to do this on the US cars. In Europe they have the UHI interface which is essentially the same thing:

If the link does not work got to: www.driveblue.com and look at the CK4000 product
