shouldn't be. bluetooth is bluetooth, but it does require the iPhone factory connector for apple 30 pin.

let us know. i'm on the kinovo now, and i couldn't be happier with the audio quality, but the clean setup of this might make me get one.

Hey this is the one I have in my car, works perfectly. Auto connects every time I get in, does not interfere with the cars bluetooth - if I get a call, it switches to that one immediately, when I hang up, it switches back seamlessly and continues.

Hey mony thanks. I'm going to try the other one first since I already ordered it. Plus it's a bit cleaner than having to use the 12v plug and wires.

Well the layen device came in today. And it did not work . Not with Android at least.. I'm not sure if it'll work with an iPhone. I'll see if I can find an iPhone to try out before returning.

Ya it powered up. I was able to pair it with my phone. It just says iPod not connected on the screen the entire time. Tried to go through all inputs but no bueno. I may just get the kinovo. I thought I could make it work, while looking clean + displaying info on screen.

Since I've returned the other module..I need to order a new one. Is the kinivo the best one to order? Is Homespot any better?

the kinovo is trouble free for me, especially on the g. both bluetooth from both the car and the kinovo link automatically. since i leave the entire kinovo unit in the center console i was concerned that the phone access would be a hassle since the kinovo has it's own mic and speaker. As it turns out, at least for the iPhone, is that phone calls default to the g and the streaming defaults to the kinovo automatically. this is not the case for my bmw. if i answer a phone call in my bmw, it unlinks the streaming. i have to keep in mind in the x5 to go to bluetooth preference before the phone call ends and switch it back to the kinovo. but, again, on the g and for the iPhone, it automatically does the car for phone and the kinovo for streaming.
