1. Will the European UHI MB Razr Cradle (MB P/N B6 787 5868) access the SIM card on a non-SAP phone when the phone is docked in the cradle? I assume the BT feature in this cradle will not work with a non-BT-SAP phone, like the Razr V3 or Razr V3m.

Separately, it seems odd to me that MB would sell a BT-SAP cradle for the Razr, when no SAP compliant Razr exists. Or have I missed something here?

2. Will the same UHI Razr Cradle work with a CDMA phone when the phone is docked? Should I expect any issues with phonebooks? Will it be possible to make and receive calls?

3. Alternately, will the European UHI HFP Adapter (MB P/N B6 787 58 77) make use of the car’s external antenna and compensators, while using the HF profile? Does it have any issues pairing and working with BT - HFP equipped CDMA and GSM phones?

4. Finally, will the US-MHI Razr Cradle (MB P/N B6 787 5869), which I understand to be BT-HFP only, work in a European UHI car?

Application is a European spec W211 with Euro code 386 UHI phone system installed, and with Euro COMAND-APS, operating in the USA. Phones in the family include 1 GSM Razr V3, 2 CDMA Razr V3m, and 1 Blackberry 8700c

I wil say this about MB...to really know the electronics of these cars you end up very very knowledgeable in areas that I never intended to become aware of, let alone capable of carrying on a conversation. Geez - silly me, I thought Bluetooth was Bluetooth. How niave of me...

Thanks for the further education...
