With my car sat., bluetooth and nav all work great together, the only downfall is sat. will not work with voice command you have to use I drive, hope a future sw upgrade will be available.

Roost,

Please tell me how do you use Voice Activating when using the Bluetooth.
On my cell phone. I already setup name dial. For example "Ted
so I would press the Voice Icon on the wheel drive, the say what? Ted?

Say - "phone" to get to the phone (unless you are already there)
Then "dial name" and he says "say the name" and you say "ted". The guy then says "dial ted?" and you say yes.
You can also "dial number" and say "8675309"

Sometimes you have to give Voice guy a sec to respond but it works pretty well. Better than the v710 has built in (ie better recognition) with very similar commands and confirmation.

This function supersedes your voice dialing on the phone. I don't know that you can access that at all through bluetooth and I-drive but you don't really need to. The BMW doesn't need voice training (again like the v710).

How ironic that you are dialing the same # that is part of a now famous song!

How does it handle multiple numbers per contact? Like when you have a V600 or V710, after you say the person's name, the voice command says "Which number" and you say Home, Mobile, etc.

I don't think it does unfortunately. It just has mult #s listed but I don't know if it realizes that 1 is a cell and 1 is home. I've not spent a lot of time trying but I haven't figured out how to do anything but the first #.

Hi Roost,

In order for voice activation to pick those up, do you record a voice tag (Voice name) on the cell phone first? or does voice recognition actually reads the name in your phonebook?

I have the BMW phone pro (German spec E60) and the numbers in my phone book are recognized automatically... I never recorded the name tags... It just knows what I am saying...
