Caller ID in non-nav TCH?

[uicandrew]

Hi guys. I tried searching the forums for this information but without success.

I'm looking into getting a non-nav 2009 TCH with the JBL system with bluetooth.

if someone calls me, does the caller id show up somewhere?

does it show up in the stereo display (where the cd and radio info is shown)?
or does it show up in the display in the center of the speedometer (where the mpg is shown)?

i've tried looking for the tch owners manual online in pdf format, but have only found a 1.8mb file that lists very basic information.

Mine shows up in the radio display. As long as your phone shows it, the radio should as well.

Some of this may depend on the phone and/or how the cell company has 'customized' (read handicapped) the handset. My Moto Razr V3/Verizon only shows the numbers in the 'quick dial' of the stereo. Others show as numbers, if at all. Some handsets will download the address book easier than others - the Bluetooth profiles allow ObEx push, but implementation vary. For example, mine allows only one number at a time to transfer.

So, to the original answer: a definite maybe, if your handset, wireless provider, and the stero 'like' each other. Easiest way to find out for sure is to see if the Toyota dealer will let you try to synch your phone with the 'candidate car'.
