Will Motorola Razr V3 Work with HFL?

Q: Will Motorola Razr V3 Work with HFL?

A: You never really know until a final release is out in production, but the specifications are such that it should work with the Acura HFL. I think there will be more success with the Razr than with the V710 because this is a GSM phone that can be released independent of carriers, and will be released in Europe as well where carriers are generally much more open about bluetooth. Motorola is really getting a repuation for being pushed around by carriers (since carriers generally don't like motorola, and i say that from experience of being in meetings where people who work at various carriers who have said "we don't like motorola") so they have to do a bunch of wacky stuff to get carriers to distribute their handsets (see http://www.nuclearelephant.com/papers/v710.html and http://www.burningdoor.com/steve/archives/000129.html for just a couple examples).

I'll let you all know once i have tested one.

Does anyone know if the new Verizon Motorola Q smartphone will work with a new 2007 Lexus Es 350? My current Cingular Razr works fine and I want to be sure the Q will work before I purchase one. I am aware of the past Verizon problems. Any input is appreciated.

I would like to know if the Motorola Q from Verizon will work with Audi's MMI System. I just bought a 2006 A4 with bluetooth and would like to know if all the features will work on the Audi MMI system. Phonebook sync and dialed calls and etc.

YES IT IS!!! All Audi vehicles are compatible with the new Motorola Q. I just hooked it up with Audi's MMI system and it works beautifully. All the features in Audi's MMI system works, phonebook, recent calls, dialed calls, everything.
