Bluetooth retro fit kit?

I was wondering if anyone knew if MINI has finally come out with the factory retro fit for bluetooth. With the CA cell phone laws changing have to do something and my wife won't use a headset.

Look at Parrot, if you can't wait for the factory kit. It works beautifully.

Just to answer your original question...there is no bluetooth retrofit kit yet. The dealers have tried to do it, but it is very difficult and they charge like $1000 and highly discourage it. I tried two dealers and they both refused to do it and suggested I get a bluetooth speakerphone. The parrot one is nice, but it requires removing your stereo and all...great if you can do it, but sucks otherwise.
