Well, I took the plunge and picked up the MEX-BT2500. It pretty much works as advertised. You cannot seem to initiate voice command calls from the head unit (pressing the button when the phone rings answers calls, holding it for 3 seconds initiates a re-dial, those are the only options). Handsfree quality is tolerable, but not great.

The issue I'm having now is with A2DP bluetooth. I am using the most recent WM6 kitchen (11-17-07). It pairs up no problem. When I go into the settings and hit the "set as wireless stereo" option it seems to connect, however when I play something I hear about a second of audio, then nothing.....for about 30 seconds, then a second of audio.....then nothing, etc. However, if I then turn off the car while the units are connected (or take the phone outside of the units range so that it loses connection), turn the car back on, and turn the "set as wireless stereo" option back on, it works perfectly without the slightest skip.

Anyone have any ideas? Turning the car on twice every time I get in is annoying!!!

Has anyone else noticed similar behavior with A2DP headphones or speakers?

PS - I did try the registry edits I found in some threads, they did not solve this problem.
