Need bluetooth phone recommendation
I am looking for a new bluetooth phone. Any provider will do. Is there one phone that lots of people get for the TL? Anything extremely popular?
I would prefer a clamshell.
I know the preferences are kinda general - but I would like to be able to go through a wide selection and choices.
Thanks

Get a RAZR V3 with any provider they work good with the TL. You can ge t it free, it's a cool phone and works great. go to group buy section to see Bimmer88's posting. He gives it free on T-Mobile.

I recommend the Motorola E815. Great phone, pairs seamlessly with the Bluetooth in the TL and it has a ton of excellent, usable features.
I'd stay away from the RAZR right now because I've heard of some software problems with them. Also, my friend had a RAZR and she traded it in for an E815 because she liked mine better and hers was awkward to talk on due to its disfunctional shape.
BTW, my carrier is Verizon.

What software problems? I know at least 10 people using it and nobody have had any problems. It is out for more than a year now and do not think there are ny problems except it does not show battery meter in MID.

SonyEricsson phones pair up easily and have a much better way of organizing the contact info.
I currently use a Treo650 with my TL's HFL and it works great.

To me, the RAZR is a cool looking phone but it looks like it will break easily because it is so thin.

- Nokia 8290
- Sony Ericsson T68i
- Sony Ericsson T610
- Motorola V551
- Sony Ericsson S710a

I loved the nokia 7610 with my TL. no signal strength nor battery strength in the MID but as long as I have the bluetooth on on the phone, i never had to think about it. I ride my car it is connected, I get off, it eventually disconnects.it broke though and my wife gave me the SonyEricsson p910i and it is a great phone. however, i have to manually connect it everytime (sometimes I have to try it 3 times) and if I make a call it disconnects and the sound defaults to the phone only. so this phone, though nice, sux with the TL. Hope this helps.

usually. the higher end the phone the better it is. but not in this case. but, I will delete the pairing and try again.
Question: Can you also make call form the steering wheel button? I noticed that if I want to do this, the phone disconnects the p910i. The phone then prompts me whether to keep the call in the phone or the handsfree. I hit handsfree and it keeps it in the phone anyway . If I hit phone, it goes to the phone (wow!). SE p910i with TL kinda sux. But SE has the best sound out there, I think.

I've read about problems with the S710a with the 04 TLs. I guess Acura made some bluetooth improvements since then, because the phone has been working fine for me .
