> Question about BT carkits
Bookmark topic
My apologies in advance if this is a basic question or has been answered already...
If I buy a P900 and a BT carkit, is the carkit simply acting as an amplifier, speaker and microphone or is it also a transmitter? In other words, is the P900 itself and its inbuilt aerial still communicating with the network, or is the carkit doing those things instead?
the reason I ask is this: during the time I own my car, 3G will hopefully go from being a marginal proposition to a mainstream one and if the BT carkit is only a way of hearing and being heard I would imagine it will work with a 3G version of the P900 or anything else, whereas if it is also a transmitter than (I assume?) it won't work with 3G. Or am I mistaken?

Most of the car kits just function like a BT headset (there are some that also handle voice dialling themselves I understand).

Thanks - but what I'm getting at is this: can anyone tell me whether the carkit is acting purely as an amplifier/speaker/mic or whether it actually incorporates an aerial and an ability to broadcast and receive signal?
In other words, when a viable 3G handset comes along, will today's bluetooth carkits still be useable, or will they need replacing?

The carkit has no transmitter/receiver in it - the phone does all that.
The most you might get is an external aerial facility
