Checked in with Verizon. Their position is only the Sony Ericsson phone has Bluetooth enabled at the moment. There is a lot of neat gear for bluetooth - do a search on Parrot Hands Fee - and you'll see what I mean. With this stuff, your Bluetooth enabled phone - in your pocket - will become the connection link active when you sit in the car - once you install their unit. They have a unit which can use the car's system with a fancy professional installation, or a unit that plugs into the lighter. Pretty nice stuff.
Expectation is that this won't be rolled out for months. So I've gone with the Jabra hands-free bluetooth unit that plugs into your phone. Means you have to wear an ear piece....but the price is pretty decent by comparison. Retrofit installs of OnStar into 2004 cars that don't have it seem to be 1) costly, 2) impossible, and 3) versus after-market alternatives - just too far ahead of the curve at this point. The technology seems to be changing very rapidly so I'm saving my money for now and will plow some of it into snow tires - my local dealer's pushing Vredestein over Nokian, but he likes Nokian (NRW) too.
All for now. NOte I am not posting a link to the other Saab website with lots of hands-free phone stuff - because this bulletin board system won't allow it. Seems to have it blocked. What's a guy to do?
