Cool Hands Free Cell Phones . . . Where . . . How?

Waiting on my S. Wondering. In my locale it looks like cell phones must be handsfree. I haven't seen an option for this on the mini S specs. Is there a kit,a built in? What are others doing about speaker cell phones in Minis?

I understand you can buy a Blue tooth kit for anumber of different head units (if you go th eroute of changing th ehead unit). Alternatively use a earpiece either Bluetooth or cable!

There are a number of makers doing brackets for the Mini.
Then once you have the hands free kit. You can get a loom to intergrate it into the mini stereo, (says phone in screen, plays sound through car speakers etc)

There's no GSM handsfree option in the Mini. The factory head unit have connections for this, but you'll have to modify and get it to work yourself.
See this thread for explanation how.

I went for the Bluetooth option

Based my solution on the T68 phone



And added the HBH-30 Bluetooth headset



Gives me a fully portable set-up, with voice dialing, voice answer trigger, AND it allows me to connect my iPaq to the Net via GPRS for Email and WWW.

And no need to chop into the electrics on the MINI
