More are asking for BT but I have not taken it on as all the feedback I have had is poor battery life and pairing only to only 1 other BT device.
I will report back after a couple of months of use.
Prices are looking similar to the interphone.

What about a group buy deal on the Starcom Digital? With the aussie dollar being so good, these units should be a lot cheaper.

Rider to Rider is just adding a two way radio. You can actually have many riders talking to each other if you all on the same channel.

Spot on Steve, ANY 2 way radio can be accomodated , from "handheld" to full 5watt "car type". I run a 2 watt "handheld" UHF on the truck/road channel and its paid for itself MANY times over by pre warning of revenue raisers.

Advance KITB gives R-P + stereo music from MP3 ($490.00) Add B-B or anything else from there.

A GB is not out of the question (KITB at KITA price delivered for 5 or more , sounds a good start).

young Dik Wood in Dick SMith had NFI about customer relations and prolly lost a sale or six. It took him ages to find out they had non in stock and they where $240 each almost twice the advertised price.i have since seen the Scala Team set for under $200 stereo sound and a good range , seems like it may only pair to one unit at a time.I need summin to chat to Pixie and tell her hang on cos we are goin ballistic past a land barge instead of slapping her leg awake just as I gun the bike.Watch this space.

Any advances on the Scala Rider Team set , or any prices on the Autocom stuff Steve.

Tones have you used the Scala as it was mentioned in your post.?

[Jimmyhotdog]

I have used them in pair mode and they are OK for short distances.
The problem is that you can't have more than 2 at a time!
Having a chat while you ride is a total new experience.

Will give you an update tomorrow, but I think I have found a bluetooth device that is not faithful and can have up to 3 other devices attached.

Stay tuned to this channel.

Well this product is not faithful, you can connect to 3 extra devices, that would include 2 other riders.

I have purchased 2 of these units off ebay for well below the RRP price of $279.00. I would recommend you do a search on ebay and buy from there, bidding starting from only $159.00.
