Can I hear the audio-out from my Axim through a BT Radio?

I have been running my Axim X30H as a Navigation system in my truck (iGuidance 3.0). I have a powered mount, without speakers, for the X30. I use a BT GPS and hear the turn by turn instructions over my car stereo via a cassette adapter from the Axim headphone jack. I am thinking about upgrading to a Bluetooth enabled head unit. (Sony Mex-BT5000.) I don't really get what the bluetooth system can and can't do. Can I have my Axim receiving a GPS signal via bluetooth and also send the turn by turn guidance, voice commands to the bluetooth enabled head unit via bluetooth? What about if I toss a bluetooth telephone into the mixture? I hope my question is somewhat clear. Thanks for any help and advice that you can offer.

It seems like Bluetooth becomes hard to implement when using multiple bluetooth devices. Each device may work with it's own bluetooth profile and there is no standard profile.

Quote:

there is no real standard. Sure, there are plenty of phrases that look like standards. Just take a look at this acronym soup:

A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution)
AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control)
BIP (Basic Imaging Profile)
OPP (Object Push Profile)
HSP (Headset profile)
HFP (Hands-free profile)
GOEP (Generic Object Exchange Profile)

Does anyone know where I can find a good source of online help for getting multiple bluetooth devices to work together?

I'm not sure about your idea, but I agree that many BT profiles running at once can make my X51v have seizures....sometimes, not always. Good luck!
