I live in the UK and I have what is known as an Argos Bluetooth kit (no connection with the Argos store) fitted to my Mercedes as an aftermarket kit.
I can dial numbers from my navigation screen and it connects to my old Nokia 6600 phone but won't download the phonebook. It downloads the phone book from my Sony Ericsson T630.
Both phones are old and I wish to upgrade to a Nokia N96 or Sony Ericsson C905. The kit does or won't store the phon numbers so I guess it downloads it afresh with each connection
Has anyone any experience with the Argos kit. I wish to upgrade to a modern phone that will download the phone book for ease of use. It is a nuisance to keep dialing individual numbers when its all stored on the card and phone.
Thanks.

Hi vibesg
Unfortunately there wasn't much demand for Argos Bluetooth kit in UK as American spec. cars had all the phone preparation present which wasn't the case in UK and there is hardly any mention on mbclub.co.uk of such installations.
I don't think that N96 has Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) in it's Bluetooth stack so my gut feeling here is that you might have more success with a Sony Ericcson device.
Sorry that I can't be more help with your issue.
