Need a Bluetooth audio gadget for my car

[Fritzo]

I want to stream audio from my PDA to my car stereo, so I'm looking for a Bluetooth audio receiver. They're not very common for some reason though. I'd like one that can charge via USB as my car has a USB port.

Any suggestions or experiences?

you really need to go directly to the source...the auto connection is very old technology.

I bet you're the guy behind the desk at the hospital that won't let a heart attack victim get admitted until he fills out his insurance forms.

Anyway, I got the answer from another forum. Thanks guys!

Theres one called Venturi that streams bluetooth via a fm transmitter. Motorolla makes one as well, cant remember the model, though. both of these work thru a cigarette lighter. Havent heard of a usb version.

Blackberry Stereo Gateway is a little Bluetooth puck that is powered via a Mini USB port. If your car audio has a 3.5mm line in then this could be the answer.
