Default Adding Navigation and Bluetooth to a B7

Saw this add for a bluetooth navigation system on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_4181wt_1171

Has anyone installed one and how did it work. Is it OEM? Does it connect to bluetooth phones so you can use the wheel buttons? I wonder if it includes the Navigation CDs. I have seen the system advertised for twice this price on the internet. Seems o good to be true.

I've seen these as well and can't find anyone with any positive of negative reviews. My big worry is the radio tuner section as well as nav updates. Thanks to ebays new retarded policy, you can't actually ask a buyer (not seller) a question now.

Default More info, but not much

I have continued to surf the net about this system. I have found it for $1300, $1000, $900, $700, and $400. They all seem to be the same unit with the exact same description. What I really want to do is gain complete iphone 3GS bluetooth telephone compatibility without adding tacky add-ons to the interior.
This has been an extremely frustrating experience. I can't even find a charger dock for the iphon that isn't tacky without wires hanging down or sticking out. It would seen so easy to hard wire one into the cigarette wire circuit with dock in the ashtray. I have seen a $400 system that does this and allows music to play directly through the car stereo with control from the car stereo. However, the phone function does not work I have seen bluetooth to use the phone, but music will not play and you still need a charger dock. I guess the electronic companies feel that everything is to car specific to make in money on a truly integrated system for each car.
