    Just got the bluetooth unit installed on my ES yesterday. All I've got to say is: this thing rocks! Love making calls just by touching a button and saying a name. If you've got a bluetooth compatible phone, this is a definite must, IMHO.

    My phone, BTW, is the Samsung T429 from T-mobile. It's not listed on the Mitsubishi compatibility website, but I can confirm that making and receiving calls works without a hitch, and the phone pairs no problem. It doesn't appear to show the phone's battery level, but that's a minor quibble.

    can't imagine not having bluetooth in a new car imo. and in belgium you can get fines for calling with celphone while driving so... hand's free ftw

    I think it comes standard on the GTS, but not the ES. The ES is set up for it, but you have to buy the electronics separately. You cannot add it to the DS at all, though you can go with aftermarket systems.

    At any rate, I'm hooked. I was talking long-distnace to my mother in South Carolina the other day and she had no idea I was even in a car. She thought I was calling from home. That's nice voice quality.

    Mine came with the GTS... I don't like it though. I find for the most part it doesn't understand what I'm saying, doesn't matter how clearly or loudly I speak.

    But it would be a nice feature for someone who does talk on the phone a lot. Sometimes if I have it on it always scares me when my music shuts off and this voice is like INCOMING CALL haha.

    Guess it's one of those love it or hate it things.
