I just got my Treo650 from Verizon to replace my 650 from Cingular (whos service/connection/dropped calls SUCK Hard!). :thumbsdown:
BMW is not on Verizon's list of supported Bluetooth cars.

Does anyone have the 650 with Verizon yet?
Does anyone have ANY Verizon bluetooth phone that works with the e60?

My phone just arrived in the mail but there is no phone number and given the holiday it will probably take me a few days before I can get it functioning.

Responding to my own post:

Yes! The Treo650 for Verizon works!
Not only does it work but it responds in every way much better than the Cingular phone.

I went one further and have paired both the car AND a Treo Bluetooth headset. It detects the car before the headset and so far (it's only been one day) I have no issues!! :winkcool:

I have Verizon Moto V710, works perfect except for text messaging. Loads phonebook. Will dial with voice command of phonebook name WITHOUT programming voice command.

i'm glad that it works. which bluetooth module version do you have?

I wanted to retrofit bluetooth into my 05/04 build 530i, but the dealer quoted me $1800 for it! I like the idea, but not for $1800.

on a related note, i tried pairing the verizon 650 with my 12/05 X5 and kept getting a reset loop that I can't fix.

How do you get it to voice dial? Mine pairs and downloads the phone book, and I can voice dial by speaking the numbers, but I can't get it to voice dial an entry from the phone's contact list!

you have to do "save name" first. then you can use "dial name" to call out the saved list after.

Does your phone transfer the entire phone book? Mine only transfers the numbers from my favorites. How do you voice dial a phone book entry?
