What phone do you have?? If its an IPhone, then you are out of luck... Something is not compatible with the 2 so can't use it.. I believe some android phones work just fine.. I have an iPhone and its not working...

It is fine with Android (Samsung Galaxy Note II) provided you get the app that let you share the connection (BlueDUN).

An app to enable outdated connectivity. MB should have sorted this years ago - it should just require a software update to add the PAN bluetooth stack and so it's not exactly difficult.

No, PAN would require a different chipset I believe..

PAN is simply a profile that is added to the stack, the same as DUN is a profile, and this surely should have nothing to do with chips - it can be programmed. If this wasn't the case then an app would surely not enable PAN on android phones.

Haha, I saw the: "PAN in Bluetooth? No you're stupid, no you're stupider" argument over on the Benzworld forum earlier...

For what it's worth, I saw an interesting article on the subject that suggests that Mercedes will indeed include PAN in some of the newer versions of their Bluetooth stack:

That is over a year old and stated that there would be a solution in the second half of 2012, so it's not worth much... That's not happening based on the information that I have been given.
