Verizon Treo 700p & 2007 BMW 530xi Bluetooth

[Kewl X5]

Okay, I got a 2007 BMW 530xi Touring as a loaner car and tried pairing my Verizon Treo 700p which has the latest firmware Treo700p_-1.10-VZW and as predicted and mentioned by other members that IT WORKS!!

So, 2007+ BMWs with Bluetooth with iDrive will work with my Treo 700p. My contact "favorites" address book loaded up in the BMW iDrive screen. Treo paired up fine with the 2007 BMW. I made a few phone calls with no problem or dropping of pairing between the BMW and Treo.

In fact, it treats the BMW as a Bluetooth headset. I have no problems pairing with my Plantronics 665 headset with my Treo 700p either.

So does that mean I have to buy a new BMW to get my Treo 700p to work with Bluetooth?

Or does anyone have an older BMW like my 2001 X5 and a ULF that works with the Treo 700p?
