Hehe it's funny you mention that but I actually did that exact thing today. I went to the Telus store and asked for them to see if the phone would work in the car. The salesguy brought out a 710 bluetooth Motorola (that was not connected to service mind you) and it would not connect to the car's bluetooth system
The salesguy thought it might be because the phone was not connected with service yet (he just took it out of the box). I think that the phone won't work because it's not one of the approved phones on the list.
I don't want to have to drive the car 30 minutes to the dealer's just to see if he can connect my phone up to the car. Kind of seems a bit much if you ask me...
I don't really want to buy a fido or rogers phone as I already have a contract with Telus and it will be expensive for me to cancel.
