I am planning to install the blu logic bluetooth installing in my camry from the Toyota dealer but i want to check if people have reviews or exp using iphone with built in bluetooth with Camry`s
if you have an iphone, i dont think you need the bluetooth. I have an iphone 3g and when i connected it through the aux port, everything is played through the car's speakers. Music, incoming/outgoing calls...
It'll work the same way. all i do is accept the call and talk with the phone being on the cup holder or wherever it is (the microphone on the phone is good enough to pick up the sound) and listen through the speakers.

I highly doubt the mic would pick up sound from such a distance. Not to mention, you put your phone on speaker and in the cup holder..hit a pot hole or bumper road and the other person on the other line would be hearing scratches and banging on the phone. Not to mention, you will sound far away.
actually its quite good. i've asked the people on the other line. its still good when you talk regularly as if you were talking to someone sitting next to you. whoever has an iphone 3g/3gs should try it. i was surprised when i found out that it works. thats how i've using the phone when i'm driving
Bluetooth is wireless, you just use the car. No need to do anything with the phone and it connect automatically. If you use AUX, than U have to connect every single time and with the wires. I did put my GPS into AUX, its annoying. I did that b/c I was listening some MP3s that I was too lazy to burn into cd.

OMG thank you! I have owned the car for about 5 months now with an iPhone 3G and did not realize this feature. It indeed does come through the cars speakers if you use the AUX. I almost bought the blu logic kit for this too. Now all I need is a better mount than the one I have. I am pretty certain I can find a way to have a mic attached to the AUX cable too as the mic and headphones are through one wire in the iPhone headset that comes with it.
I just picked up my new Camry SE last night and setup my BT on my phone(s) an hour ago, one of them is an iPhone 3G and 3GS. Both paired perfectly and I had no problems whatsoever making or receiving calls through the bluetooth system.
I was a little concerned at first, however, because I had seen a few posts here and there about problems with the iPhones and audio feedback (echo, etc.) when connected via bluetooth, but so far, no problems at all!

I installed the blu logic in my car for free, took me about two hours from start to finish. It would've taken less time, except I'm anal about taking my time and getting it just right. If you can turn a screwdriver then you can install it yourself. The wiring is idiot proof plug and play. I hope this helps you out.

I can vouch for him, it works perfectly fine. I use to do this when i had my sony ericsson, just hooked it up to the aux in and used my phone as my music source, and also hands free talking while driving.
Iphone works the same way, and the iphone also has the ipod feature built in so you can play your music and when someone calls it will pause the music and put the call through. I usually have my phone in my lap (to change songs) or just sitting near the cup holder. Works wonders. All you need is the cord for your aux input. Which should be cheap <$10.
There is nothing to see. The only visible signs that I have the Blu Logic kit is the button located in the "TRAC OFF" button blank. Otherwise it looks like a bone stock ash colored Camry LE inside.
