I've noticed the new iPhone has more interactive features.... any ideas/rumors about if it will do SMS over bluetooth

I've been wondering the same thing.

would be nice if SYNC could communicate with the new 4S

Have you had problems with iPhone/Sync? My 3GS seems to work fine.

My 4 works just fine, but things like text message read back will not work with iPhone 4. No MAP support, hope 4s has it.

It is my understanding it is not Apple, but Sync that does not support the IPhone and droids..

Let me guess: they support some windows phone that nobody will buy?

RIP Steve Jobs.

Funny, i read somewhere it was the other way around.

The way the iphone handles blu tooth is not compatible with the way ford handles the sms read back feature.

That may be true. Although I'm a bit of a Mac fan, Apple tends to be dictatorial about its protocols. On the other hand, if MS SYNC voice recognition worked even HALF as well as my iPhone voice recognition, I'd be doing cartwheels.

SYNC interprets "messages" as "massages" which never fails to bring laughter to my passengers... "Calling massages..."

At least half the time, it has no idea what I'm asking. If I say call "My messages," it asks, "Call Marcel?" WTF?

We're having bluetooth issues with my wife's iPad2 and a Logitech wireless bluetooth speaker - so I'd have to guess it's more of an Apple thing. Her Droid X pairs with the speaker and works fine w/o disconnecting - the iPad disconnects every 15 or 20 minutes.
