What cell phone to get???

[rlr66]

I just ordered my GenIII IV w/solar roof and want to know what cell phone will work with the Prius and AT&T networks?? Currently I have a Nokia flip phone that came with the cell sign up. I just need to make and receive calls. No internet or email. Any suggestions?? I have read that some phones will work better than others.

I have a unlocked Nokia N85 and when i got it i just moved the ATT sim card from the old razr and put it in the N85. No problems with that and it synced with the bluetooth phone sys in my Gen III model III with nav and transfered all my contacts. I have NOT tried streaming music but it handles phone calls just fine.
That's one of the things i like about ATT that you can pretty much stick your sim card into a new phone and it works fine.
BTW i didn't buy the phone from ATT, i got it from Amazon

Thanks. I have the 6102i. It's pretty old. I'm wondering if I should wait to see if it syncs up or not.

I JUST WENT THROUGH THIS. I WENT TO THE at&t STORE AND WE TRIED SEVERAL PHONES WITH NO LUCK. WE THEN FOUND A PHONE THAT WORKED FINE (I FORGET WHICH ONE). AFTER WE DROVE HOME AND SHUT OFF THE CAR I DECIDED TO PLAY WITH THE NEW PHONE AND THE BLUETOOTH. I RE STARTED THE CAR AND THE PHONE NEVER CONNECTED AGAIN. I DROVE BACK TO THE STORE TO FIND OUT THAT THE PHONE IS NOT COMPATABLE. I THEN BOUGHT A SONY W760A WHICH CONNECTS TO THE THE BLUETOOTH FINE. I THEN BOUGHT THE W350 FOR THE WIFE WHICH IS A SONY ALSO. BOTH PHONES ARE BOTH NORMAL PHONES AND DOES NOT REQUIRE A DATA PLAN TO BE PURCHASED. GOOD LUCK!

I have the LG Chocolate and it works very well but it will not transfer the contact list. I had to input all my contacts manually.

I had no problem pairing my Blackberry Curve (AT&T) with system. The few times that I've used the phone in the car, audio reception and transmission was fine.

I get great connectivity and call quality with my Blackberry.

i checked the verizon options on the Toyota BT site and the list comes no where close to what will connect. i have a LG 11000 enV touch, a Palm Centro, Blackberry Storm and LG 10000 Voyager, all connected, all transfered contacts. was actually pretty easy process.

on the Chocolate?? what version is it? the site above says it works with all versions except that the 8500 and 8550 dont support multiple entries (iow, more than one # for a single name entry). if your phone is not working, you might want to make sure you have the latest flash upgrade (this requires you to take to store to connect to their machine). the Chocolate was a work in progress the entire time it was available (which means it was a piece of garbage) so multiple updates were released to fix one bug after another.

My wife's I-Phone works great.
