    I work at MSFT, the latest Zune is going to have Bluetooth on it. Does anyone know if the stereo in the 2007 Prius w/ package six will be able to link the Zune to my stereo or does the bluetooth only work w/ the phone?

    Hi GJ. Unfortunately, the Bluetooth on the Prius is pretty rudimentary. Think of it as a motorized phone ear piece. No stereo support.

    As Bill said, it does not work (at least on my '05) with my Motorola V3xx w/ stereo BT.
    I have a Motorola hand-free kit on my BMW, and it actually works with the stereo BT of my phone, though there is only 1 channel instead of 2. The BT connection with Prius is also 1 channel only, even if it works.
    You won't enjoy mono music, will you?

    I also have a Motorola stereo BT headphone to work with my V3xx. When it connects, it connects twice. One for each channel. You hear sound from one side first, then the other.
