Title: CDR 500 handsfree dash text interfacing
Post by: Phil B on 22 October 2007, 17:25:58

I'm looking at fitting a Bluetooth handsfree kit to my car, but I'm fussy.

I don't want any extra screens/modules/cradles visible in the car. I can live with a small control button.
But at the same time I want to be able to see who is calling as my phone will stay in my pocket. So ideally I want the CID to show on the original display on the dash.
And the kit must mute the stereo and go through the car speakers.

Does anyone know if this is possible with the 500? I know it does the muting etc but will a kit send caller detail text to the display?

I was looking at the Parrot Evolution 3000, nice and neat, but can't find any further info on the CID through my screen.


Cheers
Phil

AFAIK, nothing to show the details on the MID via CDR500 - the only input to stereo is mute and line in.

Bugger! I hate dashboard furniture. Guess I'll stick to pulling over or ignoring!

Parrot 3000 kit just shows "MESSAGE" on the mid when a call comes in.
