Default Best bluetooth phone?

Im buying an 05 LS430 UL next week. I like the Motorola V600 phone. Which bluetooth phone works best with the LS? Is a permanetly mounted phone charger kit available, mounted in the center arm rest??

Thanks in advance...

I am not fortunate enought to have a new Lexus, but I did just purchase the V600 w/ Blue-tooth and I am really happy with it. It works really well with the bluetooth speaker I bought, so I can only imagine how well it will work with a built in system. I did alot of research on phones as I tend to keep stuff a long time. Kept my old phone 6 years and this was the only choice after I looked around. It's really great looking too --Good luck

The nokia 6600, and the I-mate PDA phone are both great.

The best currently available Bluetooth phone is the Sony Ericsson T637. Avoid the Motorola V600 as it has been pulled from the market by Cingular and AT&T due to numerous problems.

Besides the T637's good overall Bluetooth performance, a key advantage of it over other phones (including all Motorolas and Nokias) is that it has a function that will let you send all of your phone book contacts to the vehicle at once. Otherwise, you'd have to send contacts manually one at a time, which could take quite a while.

SE T61x/T63x series

Sony Ericsson has Bluetooth down to a art.

Agree. Seemless integration with my 2004.

Angry my v600

My v600 works for a week then stops. I cannot reset it. Cingular has me go and reset factory settings then it works again for a while. This is my second v600. Question does cingular offer a sony T 637? They haven't offered anything else. They keep telling me new motorola is out in a month. Thanks for any help.

Yes, Cingular does offer the T637. They are the carrier I use with mine.
