Bluetooth adaptor?

I am picking up my Gl550 on Saturday and my wife wants the blue tooth adapter. How much do these things cost and is there a site online to save some cash?

I would highly recommend the Bluetooth adapter, it works great. With my Nokia E65 I only use the adapter as a handsfree system, but my wife can see her Nokia (don't remember the type) phonebook on the digital console (which I can't). She actually never uses that feature since her phonebook is waaaay to long...

I got mine on E-bay for $295. It costs at least double that much at the dealer I think. Just make sure you get the newer model (B67875878).

I have the blue tooth adapter and bought it from the dealer for $500. It works best with certain phones only. I have a Motorola Razr and it works great. Check with your dealer to find out which phones work.

I got my wife's off of ebay as well and paid just under $300 as well. She uses the Motorola Krazr and it works well.

Here is a thread on another part of the forum about phone compatibility with the bluetooth adapter:

mine i paid 500 with dealer. and it works fine with my Nokia model 5310. it loads up all my address book and also recently dialed numbers & received calls from phone.

i was used other phones with this system before. and here are my experiences.

Palm Treo 650 - works fine, NO phone book sync
Motorola RZR V3 - works fine, with phone book sync
Motorola RZR V3i - works fine, with phone book sync
Sony Ericsson w880i - works fine, NO phone book sync
Sony Ericsson w580i - works fine, NO phone book sync
Nokia 5310 - works fine, with phone book sync

hope this helps..
