I just leased (Saturday) a 9-3 SE with OnStar (which I hadn't wanted initially). It now includes a cell phone setup which I've already found useful, though I don't yet know if I will keep it once I see the full costs after the "free" period expires. But so far it's better than I had expected. I like the built-in microphone and having the phone linked through the audio system. I know of other systems using DVD-based GPS on a built-in screen, but I think I would find that distracting while driving. When I called to try-out the system, the OnStar operator was able to pronounce my name without mangling it, which may be part of my reason for approval! So far no need for stock quotes etc. The market is going, I don't want to know...
