Question

My boss has a 2006 BMW 750i. He just purchased a Blackberry Storm model 9530. He is linked to his work computer. As far as the Blackberry, he is able to have with him all 1,000+ contacts from his Outlook. However, in his BMW, not all the names appear because there are so many. We understand that. We are trying to separate his "BMW car phone numbers" from his entire contact list, probably only about 30 contacts. We categorized in his Outlook "BMW cell phone". When we go to the bbto just show the select categories list, it shows up on his blackberry but not the BMW. I noticed there is another list, the "Hot List" (???) in the BB. noone knows how to use. I've tried creating a group, and it does not pick up in the BMW. Do you know anything about this? Noone I have spoken to at Blackberry tech support knows of it. I've spoken to a lot of tech support people, my boss has been going crazy for the last month. Can you help? Are there upgrades for the Blackberry to compete with BMW?

Hi dont want to give you bad news but this is from bmw. They have a list of phones that work on the car. The phone your boss has is not on the list. Some functions may or may not work. Thanks mike Here is all the info for you.

 

 

 

This list is provided for reference only. The mobile phones listed here have passed compatibility tests as of the date of testing and meet or exceed minimum standards established by BMW. The list is not a warranty for phone performance or functionality. BMW makes no guarantees or warrantees as to the performance of each phone while connected to your BMW via Bluetooth® Wireless Technology. Furthermore, software releases by BMW, the phone supplier or the wireless carrier dated after testing might alter compatibly results. While many phones are offered with Bluetooth® Wireless Technology, not all phones support the necessary profiles to work with your BMW. BMW does not guarantee availability or functionality with all wireless carriers. Functions such as synchronizing the address book and transferring a call into or out of the vehicle may function differently from phone to phone.
