You need something like this. http://www.vprf.com/vmx.htm
commonly refered to as bluetooth serial cable replacement devices they can be found from many diffrent makers. These are fully intergrated modules that take serial in and spit BT out. Most need power of some sort but if you can find one that takes 12VDC then installing it in a car would be cake. Maybe even a small stepdown would work well, some cars even have other voltages running around. It would suck to have to change the battries all the time. I think your idea is totaly kickass BTW. Let me know how it works out, I'd like a demo :-) -James +----------------+ | James C.
