Works great! Phonebook transfers, all numbers have a seperate entry.
Good voice quality!
All options on iDrive are possible (except of course SMS, but there's no phone that can do that with iDrive).
You need to have content protection disabled to have a stable automatic connection with phonebook transfer.
You can use the option on the BlackBerry on what you want to transfer, a hotlist, or your address book.
Battery usage is fairly average.

Agreed, got it yesterday and all went very well....I just have to better organize my MS Outlook contacts list since switching from the RAZR.

I have an 8700c and it works great. Phone book transfers - no problem.

One question I do have for others is how to populate the "Top 10" screen. That's the one piece of functionality that seems to be hit and miss. Not a big problem, just more curious than anything.

The 'Top 10' screen are only the top 10 calls that you make from your car. Calls made from the handset don't count.
