🤣 they only have one phone that might support, and sadly that cant be gaurenteed (getting sued for that ya'know). you prolly have to go with a GSM carrier to take advantage of the new and lastest technology like that.

The Audiovox 6600 is just as crippled as the V710 for car connectivity. Check this out:

No, John. I searched the Bluetooth Qualified website to get my answer:

Are you saying that the Audiovox 6600 has a full Bluetooth stack, including the profile of OBEX?

I did learn my lesson so I am doing the research all over again. Verizon keeps sending me email that says a fix is coming this QTR for the V710, but I need something else in the meantime.

If the 6600 works for my car, I'll give it to my k...

Yet, the Audiovox 6600 would only partially, and not reliably, work (via bluetooth) with our 2004 Acura TL. Nor would it sync via bluetooth with my Apple PowerBook G4.

That is why the Verizon Audiovox 6600 is not Bluetooth Qualified, like the Verizon V710 is not. None of the Verizon phones meet the Standard.

You can check here to see if your phone meets the standard:

Hopefully, the Lawsuits in CA and NY will clear up the confusion. The V710 and PPC-6600 should have been ...

I wonder if this will hurt Verizon in the long run as more states pass laws concerning driving and talking on a cell-phone while more automobile makers offer built in bluetooth technology. If I bought a car with bluetooth capability I know I would switch cell carriers in a heartbeat just so I can use that option and not have to wear a headset with a wire running up my arm.

For the record I did buy the Motorola V710 and returned it a couple of days as I didn't care for the size or some of the setting options (key pad lights shut off after of couple of seconds which is a pain when using the phone in dark settings, etc).

I doubt you will see laws restricting cell phone use in NC, Verizon and all the other carriers will spread enough money around Raleigh to make sure this won't happen.
