Controlling Bluetooth phone / handsfree functions

I've probably missed the threads, and I assume this must be possible with the bluetooth enabled X51v...

Can you control, via bluetooth, a bluetooth mobile phone and use the Axim for handsfree calls, dialling numbers via the screen etc, using the Axim's speaker and mic for speech etc?

Thanks guys and gals

Grrr darn it, was looking at the clever features on the TomTom Go 500 and 700s and thought I bet the Axim can do that!

Ahhh, that's a bit more like it, I haven't received mine yet, so is it straightforward or do you need some 3rd party apps?

Mind you I guess the usefulness of it is limited if you can actually converse via the axim, you might as well switch to the phone!

How about typing SMS text messages?

I use instantSMS to send SMS, its available from PocketGear for a few quid. Set up a outgoing com8 port on the Axim paired with your phone and then select com8 in InstantSMS setup. Works quite well.
