Hey guys. I've been looking at getting a handsfree kit for my car. The idea of a bluetooth kit seems really pimp. Correct me if I'm wrong but the Kit In Question (SE HCB-30) is only broadcast, as in, it does nothing for amplification of signal, or anything like that? Is there a Bluetooth Car Kit that allows for the addition of a signal booster and antenna?
Thanx in advance guys

What would be the point? You'd have to drop the phone into a cradle or attach the antenna to the port on the phone for any kind of exterior antenna to work. At that point you might as well get a hard wired hands free. I have the HBC-30 installed in my car and use it with my Z600 flawlessly!

Right, there is no point to a Bluetooth car kit if you have to stick the phone in a cradle.

Sorry for my idiocy. I thought that a bluetooth system could work as a sort of relay between a signal amplification system and the cellphone itself. Anyways...any recommendations for a kit? I've heard good stuff about the HCB-30, but thats about it.
Thanx.

I believe that's the only one available

No, Parrot has a kit. They had the first one, actually.

There are others, too.
