    Welcome to the family. The iPhone is definitely in a different class than the razr, but apple still needs to update the blue tooth stack to support a lot of features that are standard on most smart phones.

    I don't actually know. I don't have a bluetooth phone myself, but I thought you could integrate a bt phone with RR. Sorry if I'm off on that.

    You can with certain phones. PHOCO (now defunct) would work with most, FreePhone with others, RRMobile with others yet.

    It's funny how ANY bluetooth device will work with just about ANY phone, but trying to do it with a PC is soooooo much more complicated!

    As John and I know now, the iPhone can be controlled through VNC(jailbroken only) using Veency from Cydia. also, Internet can be shared through PDAnet from Cydia.

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Rev yet.

    It's expensive, though. $50 for the iPhone app and $230 for the OBD to wi-fi adaptor.
