Bluetooth and Palm

Anyone here have any experience with Palm 700p pairing with BMW bluetooth? I see where it isnt listed as a compatible phone but I am hoping that 2008 might include Palm. Help...

It's not on the list but should pair with the E70 car kit since the 700P is running Palm OS.

My 700p is paired w/ bluetooth but the phone book doesnt come up on idrive. Also, the caller ID shows the last person that called instead of the current person. I dropped bluetooth altogether recently though because my battery life was getting drained too fast whe the Palm's bluetooth feature was on.

thanks for the info, was wondering about this. I don't know if I will be getting rid of my treo anytime soon...

Good info...thanx. I'm really used to the palm OS also. Although many friends rave about the iPhone. Hopefully, BMW upgraded software for '08.

it should be compatible as palm recently released a maintenance release for their OS...not sure about the e70s, but it works pretty well with the e53s. phone book doesn't load though, unless you enter the number into your favorites.
