Has anyone had any experience with running an iPhone on this kit? My work Blackberry works fine but it keeps locking up the iPhone and the Bluetooth connection drops out every few minutes while driving, once this happens if a call comes in it will not pick-up.
The Parrot I have upgraded to the latest firmware version and the iPhone is running V 1.0.3
Well, thanks to these which at least red my post. Anyway, yesterday I succed to upgrade to the very last firmware version the Parrot and now everything seems to be OK. New Parrot universal mute cable The new Parrot universal mute cable comes with an additional adapter for any car brand. Please visit our web site for car models details. An added bonus is the new Parrot control module which can be updated without removing it. Take advantage of a universal Bluetooth solution The Parrot 3200 LS-COLOR is.
Thanks

I'm seeing the same problem - iPhone is at 1.1.3.
How do I check the firmware level of the Parrot?
Thanks

Are you sure the iphone works with a bluetooth kit made by someone other than apple?

I'm having the same probs too ... and it's chuffin' annoying !!
the iphone seems to want to permanentaly syncronise.. and after 15mins or so spits the dummy and totally locks up. It stays hot so must be doing something albeit nothing (screen/charger/on/off) works. When it finally runs out of battery it resets and is okay .... but that doesn't help my no car kit issue.
Has anyone found a fix yet??

UPDATE.
found this solution from chrispod on www.parrot.biz forum .... haven't given it a damn good roadtest but initially appears to work..
sync your iphone with the parrot 3200LS colour. .... keep the iphone on the 'pairing' screen. when the iphone has updated all the contacts (or if you've already doen this) then using the iphone de-pair the 3200. Then on the 3200 go to the settings - pair with phone menu and scroll down to and select 'disable autosync'. It will ask you to pair with the iphone again. Turn off and on again the bluetooth on the iphone so it picks up the 3200 ... select ... and reenter pin number. when it re-connects all the contacts are still there ... albeit i had to re-enter the voice commands. This is a small price to pay if it stops locking up the iphone !!!
Obvioulsy it won't update the contacts now... so you've have to do it one by one, or go through the process from the begining .... again - a small price to pay if it all works !!!
nice work chrispod who ever you are ... PARROT ... if you're reading this ... i suggest you add to your website when you claim the iphone is compatible !!

Can you keep us up-to-date on iPhone compatibility with the 3200LS?
Just bought a kit today and having it installed in 3 weeks.
I was hoping that the Parrot would seamlessly upload all the contacts and ID photos, which I understand it does.
What concerns me is the call drops. The UPDATE just posted is interesting, and I hope that the author comes back with further update.
Perhaps new iPhone firmware upgrades will improve bluetooth connection issues.
