Overview Tuner Bluetooth Setup Sound Quality > Conclusion
Conclusion In a world where "convergence" has come to be accepted as meaning "Jack of all trades, Master of none," The Parrot Rhythm n' Blue Car Stereo does a good job of combining entertainment and productivity in one place inside your vehicle. It combines an excellent Bluetooth handsfree car kit with a capable CD/MP3 player and a decent tuner. My only real gripe with the Rhythm n' Blue is the difficulty in switching among radio bands. It would have been nice to have better automatic synchronization with the Treo 650, but I have a feeling that it's a failing of the Treo and not a failing of the Rhythm n' Blue.
If you plan on making a lot of calls on the road and are in need of a new car stereo, the Rhythm n' Blue warrants a serious look if it is within your budget.
Pros
Great sound quality
Separate Address Book for each phone you use
