Default Stupid question?

The only way to use nav bluetooth while the car is moving, is by performing the nav hack?

sorry for the stupid question, im getting pissd by having to call from the phone not the actual nav screen, or stopping the car to call.

THANKS!

While the car is in motion, you can only dial from speed dial numbers. When you program the nav's phone book, it's an extra step to make saved numbers speed dial also.

If I need to dial a number (while I'm in motion) that's not stored in my Nav, I just dial from my cell phone, and then automatically connects through bluetooth/navigation.

I'm still waiting for someone to get in a wreck while dialing from the phone and blame it on Lexus for disabling the phone dial feature for anything except speed dial numbers.

They did finally ditch the "I agree" screen.
