Cell Phone to buy?

I am waiting delivery of my new 350ES after 4 years of a 430LS.

What blue tooth cell phone should I get?

Thanks for your help.

Lexuslover,

You did some great install instructions to get the radio assembly out to do a satellite or ipod interface install...

Are there extra instructions for getting behind the nav screen (I assume) so you can get to the cable with the M5 connector where the VSS (pin 20) cable is...to either cut it or push it out of the white connector for Bluetooth freedom?

Any tips are appreciated....

what model year do you have? the BT hack we did was on a 06 Gen 4 nav system and all that entails is a simple wire cut of the VSS feed into the display module.

i will double check tonight and let you know what i saved from my hacks
