Best Bang for Buck Bluetooth Integration

I have owned my X5 for about a week now and am wanting to add bluetooth. I have the standard business stereo. I am looking for the best bang for a buck to add bluetooth (not counting a headset). I have seen prices from ~$290-$600+.

Although the vehicle intregration isn't quite as good as the BMW system, here's an alternative to look at if you are looking to conserve $$ and still get BT working in your BMW - http://www.advancedautovations.com/wheel2phone.html

Doesn't look like wheel 2 phone will work for me. There are ~5 phones listed none of which I have. If it helps I am using a Moto Razr.

The price is tough to beat if it would work.

A nice choice but I of course am looking for the best of all worlds. I would like something that integrates with the steering wheel & stock stereo.
