lol, cobra your my new freind! Do they frequently come out with many cradles for newer phones? Heard anything about the nokia 6230 cradle? Found some posts on the phone, and BT linking, but nothing about a cradle. Thanks again!

One of the ways I found out that the cradle for the Motorola 600 was good for several other phones was to go to Motorolas web site and check out AC and DC power adapters and other things that connect to the phones. there I found that everything was common for Motorola v6xx and v5xx series phones. Recommend u do the same with Nokia. Check their site and see how many things are common between the 6230 and 6310I. Maybe u get lucky and they have same physical/electrical connections (power and external antenna). Other than that I do not have any info specific to the Nokia line and BMW cradle.

Good Hunting

In my case it gives me 100% use of my phone in the car versus about 70% without cradle.? Plus in my particular case the phone stays in the car with or without me as I cannot bring any electronic device or even recordable media into the work place.? It's all in what your needs are - no pat answer for everyone.

Agreed.
I am trying to hold back making Florida jokes. But if I were to make one (and having lived in Naples I feel like it's my right) I would have quoted The Simpsons:
Doctor: What you need is a good long rest. I suggest Florida.
Homer: Florida? But that's America's wang.
Doctor: They prefer "The Sunshine State".
