I got a complimentary upgrade since they had to do other things as well.
also, have Tmobile w/ V600.? As far as endorsing Bluetooth, I always did.? that is why I was so very upset that there might have been some quality issues, as I had on the X5.. Happy to say, so far, really, so very good!
believe it or not, i would almost say it is as good as the hardwired.. maybe i got lucky?
as for voice dialing.. got it.. problem though is lets say my phonebook say Harding Paul (yes, last name first)... and I say Dial Name, Harding Paul, it has difficulty doing the last , first thing... and recognizing the name, and what do i do about Harding Paul office and Harding Paul Home? (example only!)
thanks.

Well, after about 1/2 hour of use, and 6 or 7 phone calls, I must say I am extremely HAPPY with the quality of the voices, both ways.? In fact, I don't think the problem, at least in my car, was to turn the volume down, but rather, at least on the logic7, the volume can go way way way too high.. so at NORMAL volume levels, it is perfect.

I ordered BT on my next 535d delivery and I need some clarification on following point:
I know the list, in continuous upgrading, of the compatible BT phone models for E60, but not all of those models have a cradle (or a snap-in as my dealer call it) available neither from BMW neither from third part.
Is it correct that the "only" functions of the cradle are: mechanical support, power supply for recharging phone, antenna connection ?
Do you know if is it planned a cradle for Motorola Razor3?
In your experience/opinion is it important to have the connection to external antenna (shark I suppose) ?

[/quote]Ricky, it is correct for the cradle purpose.
I consider cradle to be important :
- in particular if you are going to take long rides . AFAIK BT connection kills battery life quite heavilly.
- if you are dependant on permanent accessibility or stable and reliable reception I hate being interrupted during telecon.
I like Razr vm and hope BMW provides the cradle ASAP.
