New bluetooth and a Motorola V3

Has anyone managed to get a Motorola V3 to work with the new blue tooth interface ?

Thanks

Are you talking about with the bluetooth puck for the
V60 cradle? If so, then yes I have, I pair a V3 Razr and
a L7 Slvr to my car daily.

Not sure about the V60 cradle , this is a device that fits where the normal phoNe cradle goes and it means that your phone remains in your pocket and automatically runs through the phone when you get in the car.

It plugs in the center arm rest right? The one which MB recently
sent out an email about to advertise it? If its a part that you buy
from your MB dealer for around $300, then yes it works. Very well
I might add.

Actually curious about the V60 adaptor cradle myself. I had the old V60 MB phone with hands free and voice recognition. When I had to update my Verizon account they told me they could not put the phone back in the system b/c it was not 911 compliant. Anyway have the Verizon Razor V3m
and was hoping that I wouldn't lose any functionality with the cradle adaptor. Anyone use it with voice recognition? Any problems whatsoever?

Thanks

Can't hear sound through car speakers

I got a new bluetooth adapter puck and have paired my RAZR V3i. I am able to use the steering controls and radio phone controls but I can't hear the phone through the car speakers. The other person can hear me so the microphone is working fine. Any ideas what is going on?

Not to sound like a smartass, but did you turn the volume
up on the radio? I had the same problem when I first started
using it, but I found that the volume needs to be what feels
like considerably loud, like if it were playing a cd and I turned
it up that much, I would surely loose some hearing.

MHI Bluetooth Adaptor w/ V3

I have the MHI Bluetooth adaptor paired with a Verizon V3 Razr. Works great in the car - downloads phone book to command, calls are clearly heard over speakers, steering wheel controls work to make or receive calls. The only complaint is that person who I am speaking with complains that I sound muffled. I did not have that problem when I had a v710 docked in the cradle.

Same here. Always get that complaint from whoever I talk to. I was told by MB Wireless that I need to buy a V3 from them because those particular phones have software tested to work well with the BT module. Sounds kind of stupid since the reason most people buying the BT do so because of the expectation of using it with their existing phones.

No speaker output

Yes, I have tried raising the volume on the radio. I can hear a little static in the background but I can't hear anything on the speakers from the phone. I tried a 2nd phone and got the same results.
