    First I would like to say that if I knew how great this car actually was, I would have bought it sooner. I originally bought this car for the obvious reasons, gas mileage and the capability to go into the HOV lane solo. If more people drove it, more would buy it.

    First question, what’s the difference with the blue battery status indicator (which never has risen higher than 60% and the lime green status indicator (which has risen to all but the very top).

    Second question, how do you setup the “dial by name†dialing ?

    Third question, having a lot of trouble importing the address book from my Blackberry 8820 (otherwise connects and works no problem)

    Thanks for all of your help !

    I can answer your first question and give a comment on the third, but have no info on the second.

    1) The battery indicator has 3 colors, based on how much charge is in the battery (SOC in Prius-speak, for State Of Charge).

    SOC = 1/2 bars, color is purple
    SOC = 3-6? bars, color is blue (most usual appearance)
    SOC = 7/8 bars, color is lime green

    3) transferring contacts from a phone to the Prius phonebook is a problematic process, some phones work better than others. Some phones can transfer all, most can only transfer one at a time. It's probably quicker to transfer the few that you'd be likely to call from the car and assign them to a speed-dial button (there are 3 pages of those) for use while driving.
