    I have a Centro and will try to pair it tomorrow or Wednesday and let you know. I bet it will pair.

    I just got a Centro and can't pair it with my '06 Prius. I had been successfully pairing with my 755p before this.

    The Blackberry 8800 series works very well with the Prius BT. No phonebook sync, incoming call ring, or auto connectivity issues.

    All new Sony Ericsson GSM Phones

    Sony Ericsson recently switched to a new, stacking universal connector type. They've given this one a name I don't remember; it's on the K700 series, W550-W800 series, Z500 series and others.

    All these telephones work flawlessly with the Prius AND Plantronics Discovery 665 headset SIMULTANEOUSLY (as in, when I get out of the car I transfer the connection back to my Plantronics, and it works every time; when I get in the car the car automatically intercepts and proceeds with the conversation).

    I have a 2008 (only 3 weeks old) and a Treo 650 Cingular/Att. Setting up the phone was simple and I had no problems. Works 100% (all functions) - well at least I have 3 weeks worth of data to report......!

    Last night I successfully sent the phonebook from my Verizon Voyager to the Prius. It sent the whole phonebook at once.

    I just bought a LG chocolate from the Verizon booth in Circuit City a few days ago and they even transfered it and the phone book for me. I haven't had but a few calls on it but it works great. I put voice tags on some numbers and made calls while in motion. And today when I was about twenty yards away from the car with my phone in my pocket and the car running, my phone beeped to let me know I had a call. I walked back to my car and answered the call with no problem. I love it.

    Treo 650 with Verizon service. No problems so far, except I have over 1,000 addresses in the phone, with multiple phone numbers per name and the nav system doesn't know what to do with all the info. I get names and mostly blanks for phone numbers.

    Moto V710, it's an older tri-mode but Bluetooth works great with my Prius JBL system.

    For all those that hate cell plans I have a Virgin Mobile w/ Bluetooth and it works great in my '08 Prius.
    Unfortunately, the feature to upload names and numbers from phone to car didn't work. I tried several times so I had to input them manually.

    Yup, that was the case for me also with the Verizon phone I own. I just plugged in the address book manually. The rest works like a charm. :)

    It's a good list, but not complete. The Voyager (LX10000) by LG with Verizon isn't listed and it not only pairs, but can send the phonebook.

    Thanks all,
    Having developed a more than strong dislike for Verizon and AT&T, (for reasons that should be obvious to most of you) I'm hoping Credo has a decent signal down here. You've helped a lot.
