Hello everyone.
This is my first post. I searched through the forum but didn't find anything relating to this topic.
I have 2 phones, 1 work (standard issue LG w/ BT) 1 personal (droid) and would like a hands free kit that connects to both. So if I get a call on work, it will pick it up. Then if I get a call on the personal it will pick it up, without me having to re-pair it.
I know some headsets have this capability now, anyone aware of a hands free kit with such a feature?
I drive a mazda speed3, but not sure if that matters. The kits I've seen go over via FM and that seems to be what I'm looking for.
Thanks!

Most hands free kits can pari upto 4+ phones. You just need to read the pairing instructions on the system to see how many phones it is capable of handling. I know most Parrot systems can handle 6 phones but these are the car kits. Check with the manufacturer sites or their respective tehcnical support.

Thanks for the reply Jeff.
I looked at a Parrot MKi9100/9200, while they allow pairing of up to 10 devices, it only allows 1 connection at a time.
After some more digging, I found that the feature is called 'multipoint'.
Here is one from BlueAnt that supports it

I guess I'll go on a googling spree on hands free kits with multipoint, but if anyone has experience with such a setup, I'd love to hear it!
Thanks

the THB Bury CC9060 kit allows connection of 2 phones at the same time. It needs to be the latest firmware to have this feature but older units can be upgraded easily :-)

There's a new Nokia kit that will do to at once.

Your Best Bet is to forward your calls to One phone while in the car... :( sorry...
Unless you have a radio that has both a bluetooth and an AUX input. Then link one up via bluetooth and the other AUX input/speaker phone mode

Also now available here so probably the US as well, Nokia CK 200 and Novero Truly One, I once had a 9060, don't think that does 2 at once.
