Palm Treo 750 with Bluetooth?

Will this phone work in the GL if I buy the Bluetooth adaptor? By the way, we love our new car! Mercedes Benz of Fort Myers, Fl took $10,500 off the sticker price.

I have the Treo 750 as well and was told by my dealership when I bought it (which was about a year ago) that they have had significant problems with Treo's interfacing with the hands free communication system and that if I wanted to buy the puck (interface module) they would sell it to me but if it caused any problems I was on my own. Obviously, I passed. Maybe things have changed in a year. If so, let us know as I would like to do it as well.

By the way, congrats on the new ride...............

slk 350
I have a 2008 ML 320 and a 2007 SLK 350. Both vehicles have the Bluetooth adapter. I am using a Treo 750 with WM 6 operating system. The phone works perfectly in both vehicles. Contacts download automatically if you have saved them to a speed dial. Other contacts will only download if you change their category to "CarKit". When I first got my Treo it had WM 5 operating system. It did not function properly with the car Bluetooth system, however once I upgraded the phone to WM6 I had no problems. Hope this helps.
