Is the '05 RX330 Nav Truly Voice-Activated?
I Refer to: http://www.lexus.com/models/rx/price_options.html
If you click on the link for - Lexus voice-activated DVD Navigation System - it brings up this window:
"The navigation systems offered on the LS and LX also allow the user to find a location by typing in a phone number, and offer optional Bluetooth®[2] technology, which enables the systems to interact with compatible cell phones. This voice-activated technology is only available for navigation systems in LS, ES, LX, and GX models."
This is really confusing. it seems to imply that bluetooth and/or voice-activation is not available on the RX.
I've waited on an '05 to get both bluetooth and satellite radio. now i can't seem to figure out if either are really offered. damn.

Navigation System
speaking of the new voice-activated nav system, i have a 2003 RX300 without nav. does anyone know if it is possible to have the new voice-activated nav system installed in an rx300? i believe it uses the same size screen as the current lcd display, but i'm sure they would have to replace the entire panel since it's a different switch layout. i would love to have the new voice-activated nav system w/XM satellite in my 300, but am not sure if it's something that is only compatible with the new 330's design. since the 300's offered nav, i wonder how big a deal it would be to install a lexus nav system and if the 300's design would allow the voice recognition software to work? if so, how expensive would it be? any thoughts?
