Default no

Phone cost depends on carrier (Cingular is $405). Cradle is 305 Installed (Cradle is $250).

Default American Wireless

My dealer gave me the phone number for American Wireless (866-731-0402) the wholesaler that Audi USA uses for the Audi Motorola v60i phone.

He said that they are now telling all customers to call directly to purchase the phone because going through the dealer parts department (and their markup) was just too expensive.

Default Special Telematics Software needed...

I was told that my existing V60i wouldn't work and that I had to purchase through American Wireless. It has something to do with the interface to the audio and Onstar systems in the car I believe.

Default Just ordered phone for $404.14 shipped (Verizon) but,

there is a back order of 1 to 2 weeks. Thanks for the info, it's going to save me $250.
