Hello!

I have good news and bad news.

The bad: Manufacturing is definitely going to be delayed, by at the very least three weeks. I'm having trouble getting a Sierra Wireless Distributor who will sell me just the cVc licence that I need (it clears up phone calls). They all want me to wait 8-16 weeks to get them to manufacture the unit with the license pre-installed on it, which makes no sense given the fact that I can buy the unit today and just install the license key myself.

The good: I'm using this time to integrate the unit to the car just like the factory TCU so that phone calls can be answered under any mode (radio off, FM/AM, etc).

Thanks!
-Ted

VERY VERY cool given how expensive the OEM Bluetooth boxes are becoming, not to mention how dated they are. Very nice, keep us posted! You will sell a LOT....

Is the plan to have this work with both the Standard HiFi and DSP HiFi systems?

Chris,

That's correct. It should work with every audio system of the era -- Standard, HiFi, Digital DSP, and Analog DSP.

I came to the realization that many people prefer the stock ULF/Everest TCU over taking calls while in CD Changer mode, which is what compelled me to add the extra functionality. Hopefully those users will find the BlueBus functionality adequate -- calls will interrupt any radio source and the OE Microphone will be supported without additional hardware as I'm adding the circuitry to the BlueBus directly. Users who wish to use a non-OE microphone will have to remove a jumper from the PCB to remove the DC power from the line.

Thanks!
-Ted

Thanks Ted, it sounds amazing. Now for the older cars that came with the older 25 pin connector, I know the 25 to 54 pin adapter is NLA. Your solution won't require either connector to be used in the car, correct? Just i-bus and audio connector from CD Changer?

What are your thoughts on integrating a USB connector for code updates? Perhaps you are way ahead of me

Chris
