    I have an Audiovox 6700 Pocket PC made for Verizon. I'm completely clueless on how to transfer contacts to my navigation system. I've read other postings and do not have the option to "send via bluetooth" when I click on a contact. Would anyone happen to have the same phone as me and have knowledge on how to resolve this issue. I just bought my 2007 Prius Upgrade #6 last week and am anxious to get it up and going like I want.

    I was also aware of Verizon crippling their phones and I'm not sure if this is what the issue is. Thanks.

    Verizon has disabled the OPP on nearly all their phones. That is the bluetooth profile you need in order to transfer your phonebook. I don't know if that applies to the pocket pc as well, but considering you don't have the option to send contact, I'd be willing to bet that is the case.

    Someone here did find a way to send contacts via a palm but you would have to enter your contacts into the palm and then send them to the car...why not just manually enter the contacts into the car

    Switching to a cellular service provider that does not disable OPP and/or OPEX functions in its phones,

    Other solutions is using a BT laptop or buying a cheap non-Verizon BT phone on eBay, put the phonebook in that and transfer the phonebook to the Prius (that's what I did).
