anyone know if this works?

It doesn't seem like its fully functional now but it did say they were working on the ipod controls but you'd need MMI on your car though.

All it does is charge your 1st gen iPhone (iPhone 3G doesn't fit) and make the phone use the external GSM antenna. Functionality is limited to whatever you can get now using the OEM Bluetooth (in fact even with the cradle the iPhone still connects via Bluetooth to the phone interface). No iPod control whatsoever, not even audio. The text is very misleading on the capabilities of this "interface".

I am looking to get to swap out the 6CD changer and go for the iPod, are there any problems with this? I like the fact that it charges my phone and also I won't have car charger cables hanging out of my power sockets. If you can't control the iPod with this, can it still be hooked up to the iPod audio and then work in that way?

The mic and speaker work fine, but I notice that I don't see any of my favorites as dialing options using MFSW. I only see the four AT&T numbers that were probably on the SIM.

Currently no way to tell the iPhone what can and can not be synced via BT.

This might be a BT Profile change that needs to take place. More info about iPhone BT posted below.

Typically the system in the car may have some settings for this or could require a software update to work better with iPhone.

As far as if and when will there be a fix no one can tell. But I do encourage you all to post feedback to the link below the BT information link.<ul><li><a href="http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html">Submit feeback</a></li></ul>

Just place it in the cradle and the press on top of the locking piece of the cradle

Can you tell me how you managed to get your contacts imported - I cannot access the phonebook at all.

Thanks

that memory is set to all (SIM &amp; Phonebook) at the telephone set up (bluetooth). With that I got the phonebook transfering all the time.

Yup, got that. Could it be that transfer stopped after a phone OS update?

Check my software version - 210. That the same as you?

is that the latest version?, I just got apple email today about the latest I-Phone software upgrade.

Sorry - was talking about software in car. Had no luck with iPhone software versions 2.02 and 2.1 (latest)

I have not upgraded to latest

Thanks, will see if I can get an update for the car

Although I'd appreciate it if more users would submit feedback to Apple on the lack of Bluetooth flexibility. Link is below.<ul><li><a href="http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html">http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html</a</li></ul>

If that is the case go to telephone then set up, then look for memory set up, I think the default is SIM, when I got the Q7 I changed to both (SIM + Phonebook).

I've got an iphone and there are no BT settings available...yet
