Absatively Posilutely excellent!!!
Have had 1 of these in my car for a year now and cannot recommend them highly enough. Unlike other posters I had mine professionally fitted as it was being fitted into a Vauxhall that didn't have the standard ISO loom. The voice recognition option is awesome and means I don't have to take my eyes off the road for a second when making a call.
The one thing that parrot could do to make this product even better is to include a hands free socket on the back so that if your car already has steering wheel hands free tuner/cd volume and station/track adjustment then you can tranfer it over to the Parrot - but that's a minor niggle - all in all excellent value for money

Easy Install VW Sharan Works Great
Installed this in a 2001 VW Sharan.
Simply fixed to existing loom, installed Mic and connected antenna (this required converter) got one from Halfords for £3.99.
Installed and working in 30 minutes, came with extractor keys to remove old radio from dash.
Easy to attach and to use with phones, clear easy display.
Sound from stereo is also very clear with plenty of bass.
Would recommend to anyone to use as alterntive to seperate car kit.

Spot on
This unit literally took me 5 minutes to fit including running the microphone up by the sun visor. The unit works well in all aspects, tuner, cd/mp3 and bluetooth hands free and is the easy to use and give clear speech in both directions, well worth the money

You don t have to teach this Parrot to talk
I had been after a car handsfree unit for sometime but was a little sceptical about their performance. The Rhythm N Blue was simplicity in itself to install and I had no trouble pairing my Samsung D500 to it. The unit produces a much clearer crisper sound than my factory fitted Citroen unit. The Tuner is excellent and holds the selected station well. The Rhythm N Blue really surpasses on the phone side. Calls are easy to make and receive via the unit or remote control. The clarity of calls has to be heard to be appreciated. Had a little trouble synchronising my phonebook to the unit, visited the Parrot website and was able to follow their easy to carry out instructions to remedy the problem. I have no hesitation in recommending this product and if like me you have not heard of the manufacturer Parrot before don't let it put you off, this is one classy piece of kit.

Has issues, but worth staying with it
This is the dream package - decent sound and a hands-free kit all in one. But there are issues, such as it sometimes loses the pairing with my P900, changing radio bands is a complete nightmare and there's no clock function.
Remember, though, that this kit's software can be upgraded by Bluetooth (and it's very easy to do!), so I would expect these issues to be resolved eventually. Also, I had a slight complication on installation - more through the poor translation of the manual than any real problem - and emailed Parrot support. They phoned me (yes, phoned me) within two hours from their French HQ. Now that's impressive, not to mention unusual these days, and gives you a feeling of confidence in the product going forward.
It's not perfect - yet - but you are reassured of their commitment to getting it as close as possible.

Makes handsfree as easy as it could be
This is a very well thought-out product, with nice features than mean that you can simply get in the car, and you're away! No need to switch anything on, tell anything to connect etc. Only niggles I would have are: (1) you may need an inexpensive adaptor to connect the aerial cable (long socket) to your car's ISO radio plug and (2) it doesn't connect to the computer display (using a 3rd ISO connector) in my car as the original radio did, which means that you have to look at the Parrot's display - would be good to have the choice.

Excellent Product
This product is very very good. I can highly recommend it. It is very simple to install. The sound quality is the same as other in car stereos that cost hundreds more and these don't have hands free kits built in! The buttons are laid out in a very logical order which makes it very easy to operate. I get in my car it displays the signal quality on my mobile and I drive away. I highly recommend this product. More companies need to come up with solutions like this one. Oh and i also recommend mobile fun, there staff are very helpful and help me sort out a payment problem very promptly!!
Thanks Again
