Parrot Minikit Smart
$129.99
While pricy relative to some other car dock systems, the Parrot Minikit Smart is a full-featured and well designed device that's pretty much universally compatible. If you have an Android phone and your partner has an iPhone or BlackBerry, you're covered.
The retractable mic pulls out of the Minikit Smart and mounts on your dash for clear hands-free calls. With A2DP, turn-by-turn navigation instructions can be voiced on the Minikit Smart's 2W speaker; much clearer and easier to hear than via your phone's speaker.
