Dear E60.net professionals,

I have browsed the Net and read most forums but I cannot find any information the really confirms what snap in adapters which are really available for the E60. Since I purchased my E60 (Sept 2005) I have switched mobile phones four times. None of the phones have had a snap in adapter available from BMW. I really starting to get seriously angry about this. How difficult could it be to produce snap in adapters? Why cannot BMW license the wiring to 3rd party providers to speed things up, or have they already, without my knowledge?

I am desperately searching for a snap in adapter for my Nokia E90. Is there one available? Will there ever be?

Kind regards
Knubblo

I don't understand why they can't just make one with a standard mini-usb plug? It would be a great place to put the phone and charge it since it is already connected via bluetooth! The craddle doesn't have to be an exact fit, just a storage shelf for the phone with a retractable mini-usb cord/plug! There are a lot of phones that would be accomodated with this plug!!
