Thanks Steve. I hope MB is planning to integrate Siri's "Eyes Free" into their vehicles soon. Honda and Acura have a few 2013 models that support it. Seams like a good idea that should keep distracted drivers from looking at their phones so much.

couple quick points- i guess by now everyone knows if phone connected via bluetooth audio it automatically reconnects when you restart..
If another option was last selected, I figured an easy way to quickly reconnect the phone, just press the disc button- this helps shuffle through bluetooth audio and discs etc-- so you dont have to go to audio, scroll down and find bluetooth audio and then reconnect, simple push of disc brings up bluetooth audio immediately for reconnection..

Used Pandora for music today for my 40-minute drive to work taking advantage of Bluetooth Audio. Worked flawlessly. Did not even plug in the iPhone 5 for charging purposes and the battery only dropped by 3%. Another reason to question the music value offered by SiriusXM. Of course, I do have a good 4G LTE signal from ATT so the need for satellite is mitigated.
