I have the new Accord with all the bells and whistles and what a let down! The cellular system can not do what a Ford Focus does these days - automatically synch a phonebook on ANY bluetooth phone, voice dial through the car using the phones voice recognition (Ford, BMW, Lexus, all do!) AND who in their right mind created a car that holds data you can not back-up? There is a CR reader, why not CR-RW- or a place for a chip in the dashboard? It has TWO phone books, the nav system and cellular, and they don't even synch! AND to add insult to injury they have a jack for your iPhone but again it is a BASIC audio in - no tunes synching (again a Ford basic) and no display on your dashboard for the tunes? I am ready to sell this new Honda despite its other upsides. The technology is simply archaic and embarrassing. Anything we can do to put some pressure on Honda to upgrade this technology to a reasonable interface? |

I'm looking at purchasing a 2008 Honda Accord sedan EX-L with no navigation system. What options are there for adding to the vehicle bluetooth hands free cellphone use, especially if it can be wired to mute the car audio system when a call in incoming? Any good aftermarket or other products out there? I could get a GPS with bluetooth capability, but would like the audio system muted when calls are incoming. Bud H

Hey guys quick question -- Has anyone experienced (just got my Accord '08 couple weeks ago) either of these issues? 1) When dialing out, call will not go through HFT (car speakers), but will instead make the call through the phone? 2) Incoming call, same problem -- answer call, but instead of going through HFT, goes through the phone? This is annoying for obvious reasons -- wonder if this is a common, fixable glitch -- I would estimate this occurs 1 out of every 10 calls or so. Thanks!

Replying to: henrychinaski (Jun 14, 2008 12:13 pm) What is weird though is that I checked Honda's bluetooth website: http://automobiles.honda.com/bluetooth/ and it said that the iPhone could not import its address book to the car. Try it anyway. I have no explanation on why it works when the site says it doesn't, maybe its a typo. |

Replying to: budh (Jun 15, 2008 7:22 pm) The phone I purchased is not listed in the Honda bluetooth list of approved cell phones, but so far it is working great. Hope this helps

Replying to: slingshot80 (Jul 04, 2008 3:40 pm) The phone is a slider and has a large display. The caller appears in the display, and caller ID is a feature of the phone. It is also a camera phone. Go to the T-mobile web site and see the phone for yourself. link title |
