I love this little gadget.It links automatically w/ my iphone & has its own voice dial feature.This is great if you have a 3g or older iphone, since it doesn't have a voice dial feature.I also love that you can change the color background for more contrast.I origainally had a Motoroal HF850 installed, turned out to be a piece of junk.I wouldn't recommend installing it yourself.I had to buy a wiring harness for my Lexus.Bought the Parrot at BestBuy, who also installed.Very user friendly.
I bought this as a Christmas present for my girlfriend 2 years ago because she was learning how to drive her manual trans 350Z and I didn't want her holding the phone and shifting gears in Houston traffic. I cannot believe the price is still the same. I had a friend of mine install it on her 2006 350Z and it works great. It worked on her Motorola Razr for 2 yrs and now she has an iPhone 3GS and it works on that too.
It gets the address book automatically (if your phone or PDA supports) and it is easy to call or be called. Probably one of the best bluetooth car kits. I had it installed with Kenwood KDC-W5541U and it works perfect with my Nokia 6680 and HTC TyTN II (Kaiser). It is paired with the phone easier than a PC, and you do not have to pair everytime. Just turn on your bluetooth on the phone and go.I advise to everyone who is planning to buy a bluetooth car kit.
Which makes things complicated, but there are kits to make things way easier for clueless people like myself. I love it. If you don't want to mess with the wires have it installed by a Parrot dealer. The Parrot connects automatically when you start the car. I have a 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche with Onstar. If you have Onstar there are ways to get it done. Do a search for Quick Connect harness to make life easy.
I do LOVE having hands free communication in my car. My only complaint at this point is that when you are talking with someone else that also has a hands free unit in their car, it is very difficult to hear each other.
