Does it really do anything more than the $13 blue tooth device that links to a smart phone?

I'm not sure what all it really does, but I bought it to see and reset the trouble codes. It can reset some, but not all. I do enjoy the feedback on driving style.

It hooks up to your vehicles plug and it can read the data and translate it into something usable and usable on the Garmin.

the biggest difference is: the GPS is already in a position to be observed during driving-if its on a smart phone it would b e like texting and driving. The GPS display would display more information than a smart phone at a glance, wouldn't have to go thru different screens.

it does what your phone does. it's simply a "repeater". it connects with your phone and if your phone has that capability, it does it. if not, it doesn't. i don't think it has a memory. like a car bluetooth does. a car's bluetooth "sucks" the address book from the phone. this does not. HTH

Yes. It does "work". Not as blue tooths normally do though. I have the same phone. I can't speak into it what so ever. Not to have it dial a number, get the date/time, or access my phone in any way. It's only a hands-free device I use to redial and speak to people that call and the sound quality is horrible to the reciever of my calls with it. They say it sounds like I'm in a box. Plus, voice quality is a big problem when it comes to outside noise or even the wind blowing. It is cheap though.

I am not sure...my phone is allowing me to look for a bluetooth device in order to listen music but the phone never connects to the bluetooth...not sure if it's my phone or the bluetooth.

Yes.. It seems to work better via blue tooth thanwired cconnection.. My only caveat to you is the controls on it are complicated.. You'll need a cheat sheet unless you use it daily..

Yes, it does. It is designed to enable a device to receive Bluetooth signals; think of it like a WiFi dongle. You have to plug in the audio/video cables, but you just tap the unit and it will take care of the rest.

I have two ATT flip phones that have Bluetooth : one from LG and a second by Samsung. My Bluetooth headset is Samsung WEP-490. It's cheap but the voice quality is only so-so at best. But it works and it's very simple. Most functions rely on only two things: (1) a big button for accepting calls and terminating calls. Nice and simple. (2) it has a switch on the side that connects your bluetooth to your cell phone: switch it on, and you're connected, switch it off, you're disconnected. It's so simple, it's great. I bought 3 of these. Found them for about $12-15 bucks each on another site often associated with auctions. I have two ATT flip phones that have Bluetooth : one from LG and a second by Samsung.

No, However it does have a splendid Bluetooth function that connects to your mobile devices. Cell phone, iPod, so on.

No. To the best if my knowledge, you'll need the far more expensive models that support Bluetooth in order to connect a cellphone.
1739668
No, it will work directly through your Bluetooth connection from your device but you can use a cable if you want to

Yes it will stream audio from you phone and computer with a blue tooth connection!
1438927
No, this device will ONLY do bluetooth audio. The sound quality is not bad, but distorts at higher volumes.

No..it doenst connect to bluetoooth. ..neither does it connect to any ear phone

No it doesn't. It's intended more for mobile devices like tablets and these usually have Bluetooth built in.
1761286
Yes. We only have the cell phone connected via Bluetooth. It works really well too.

Yep, that is it. It merely transmits data from your cars computer to the app. The app has the real power (which in it's current state is limited)
