Sweet, another new toy to play with! By the way DoctorD, I must have missed a thread or something, but what is the Visorcom you have pictured? Is it a hands free phone in place of Bluetooth?

Visorcom is a standalone bluetooth handsfree unit which works with any bluetooth phone, you charge it up (from mains or car) then it has a 15 hr talktime and 600 hour standby time. it allows me to use voice dialling and voice answer etc and although not integrated, it only cost about ?60

Its proved the ideal solution for me and somewhat less than the ?2000 quoted for a bluetooth retrofit

(when I ordered my car, you could not spec bluetooth with prof nav)

I wonder if these work on US bluetooth phones. I would imagine they would since it said "any" bluetooth phone. To bad the first website I found said they dont ship out of the EU.

There is NO difference with a Bluetooth device when used anywhere else in the world... There are phone specific issues, but they are not from being in different regions (more so from some phones not support all BT profiles properly).

jstredw, I found this web site with what appears to be the visorcom and the outfit accepts U.S $$. This might be a source for you.
