... unless, someone can recommend something better for the money?

Ideally and I don't know if this is possible. Something which can link into an MP3 player AND pair TWO mobiles at the same time?

I'm not sure the Parrot can do this either.

Yeh, I've got an iPhone4 so ideal for music but also a mobile for work which I'd ideally like to pair so I can take calls from both phones without having to switch pairing.

Not really sure any car kit does that though.

There is a kit on the market that lets you connect 2 phones at once but I can't remember which one!

Sorry

I have the one below (mk9100) and its brilliant, has hard wired connections for iPod, USB players etc as well as streaming audio from my iPhone.

Interrupts head unit audio for voice calls and sat nav, all in all, brilliant kit

I think I'll go with the Parrot even though it will only pair one phone at a time.

Also been looking at the Brodit proclips, the one with the pass through connector. So hopefully, I can atleast connect my works nokia to the parrot for voicecalls and the iphone for music?

Brodit are the way to go for mounts , check the bay for cheap ones first.

If you need to mount 2 or more bits, they used to do a speed mount system where you mount parts A of the kit to stuff you want to use, and part B to the car, that way you can switch between stuff, without changing the mount....

Mind you brodit does seem to be a bit pricey if you want lots of bits
