Is anyone using the i-Mate K-JAM with their BMW bluetooth connection?

I use the i-Mate Jam, not the K-Jam model. Works fine pairs perfectly each time I enter the car. However, it won't pull up my phones Contacts. I have to create one through I-Drive.

Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking about getting the K-Jam. If I do I'll post my experience here.

Nokia 9300 > Will pair but not consistent!
Nokia 8801 > Will know by tomorrow

OK, since teaboy pointed out his is a different brand, maybe I shoud say that my iMate Jam is the exact same phone, just a different brand called Dopod.
The following brands all have these same phones made by HTC in Taiwan just different names in different countries/carriers.
Dopod
iMate
O2 XDA
Qtek
T-Mobile
Vodophone

AFAIK few PDA phones will pair with the E60. Haven't heard of any Windows based OS or Symbian based OS phone pair fully or work flawlessly
My HP PDA phone and my Sony Ericsson P910i did not work with the E60

Update... Nokia 8801 will paired and phone book transfered. However, I am experiencing difficulty dialing from the iDrive menu. Will test again in the next few days to better understand why.

My only issue with it right now, if you switch the car off, it takes a long time to pair automatically after the first time - I do not know why yet...
