Just out of curiosity, why don't you use the BMW Bluetooth speakerphone?

About a year ago the dealer told me I had it, but it had been deactivated "for some reason" when the car was CPO'ed. They said they would activate it during the regular maintenance, they forgot, and every time since I have forgotten to mention it (probably because my Blue Ant is in my ear at the time )

The one thing everyone should be aware of is:
If you are involved in an accident your insurance will not pay for the damages. Or they will get the money back from you. And even if you are not guilty you will become at least 50% guilty once they find out you were texting while driviong, or on the phone while driving. And finding out is easy for them, unfortunately.
Here in Geremany we have such laws allready and the insurances make people pay whenever they can. So the fine you might get from the cops is not the problem...
