I am looking to switch my wife's LG PM325, which we originally purchased because it has bluetooth, yet does not work well with the e60. I am looking to get her the Razr V3 from t-mobile. Can anyone confirm that this phone works well with the car?
Also, will there be an issue if we have 2 bluetooth phones in the car simultaneously? I have a treo 650 and wifey will have the Razr v3. Obviously we won't be able to make phone calls at the same time, but I want to make sure the car can alternate between the two if we both make or receive calls in the car at different times.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated...

I have a RAZOR and a V551 with a cradle. V551 in cradle has better range.

read somewhere here on the forum that the battery of the Razor with BT switched on is empty in less then a day, could be nasty when you're on long business trips. Or you should bring a 12v battery charger but that looks ugly

Works perfectly, phonebook transfered in 10 secs. This was the reason I bought the razr. Only complaint is that the camera sucks!!!

this is all good to know. I have a Moto MPx-220 Smartphone with BT and it is not compatible at all so I exchanged it under warranty 3 times and my Razr should be here on monday. Glad it seems to work well. This isn't a bad idea for those of you looking for a new phone. The razr would have cost me $300 but I just called the warranty line for about 15 minutes per call (3 calls) and found a problem with the phone. 2 days later you have a new phone. Exchange it 3 times and you get a different model. I requested the Razr because it is on the list from BMW and voila. So this monday i will be in full BT action.

V3 works really well with the e60. I have 2 V3s and 1 V600 paired with mine and its been working fine.
With BT turned on and normal useage + driving battery lasts about 3 days average for me.

just got my V3 today and it's not working. I have an 06 and the bluetooth is activated in the car and I set the phone to discoverable and tried to search for devices with it. NOTHING!!! How annoying.
