I purchased one of these recently and decided to start a thread up (as I couldn't find one on Esato) for any users to discuss their experience with this kit (anyone out there got one, and are you happy with it ?).
For those who don't know, it is a "portable" hands-free kit (similar to the Parrot) that uses Bluetooth to communicate to the phone (so you can leave the phone in your pocket, bag, breifcase or wherever it normally resides 
Info is hard to find on the net. Some links I found are:
Seecode site (not much info)

It is working for me well for my t68i, except that I haven't been able to get it to accept voice-dial commands as yet (you have to use the handset to dial; once dialled, the kit takes over). I can accept calls using the kit only, no problem. Sound from the speaker is excellent.

Have t610 and encountering same probs as you. Never really been able to use the kit in the year I've had it. Thx for links, have printed off manual, perhaps that will help. Meanwhile I'll keep pulling over in the car to talk on the phone. Crazy, after forking out nearly £100 you'd think it would be ok.

Thanks for reviving this thread - I hadn't noticed it.
I've never heard of SeeCode before, but that Vosser B/T mirror looks awesome! Who sells Seecode products in OZ (or wherever you live)?
I don't recommend people buy 'Plug and Play' type carkits as the 'Full' carkit is so much better, however some people prefer a kit which is not permanently installed...

Since the voice-dial problem with this SeeFreeKit seems to be with T6xx (including T68i), I wonder if the K700/S700/K750/etc. suffer for that, OR the total rewritten BT code helped in that...
You know that the recent  phones prefer not to use the headset profile. I wonder if that could sort out that silly problem!
Anyone?
I'd like to suggest the SeeFreeKit to a K750 owner.. |

Having recently tried the BMW original equipment Bluetooth system with my K700i, I'm not sure it is the improvement you say. A Z600 worked fine with the 5 Series I tried. |

@carkitter.
No I wasn't saying the K700 BT is better. I was just asserting it's simply different from the T6xx series.
Therefore I'd have hoped that the "change" would have helped to solve that strange anomaly the SeeFreeKit shows with T6xx phones Voice Dial...
So it's not the case, right? :-/
What I'm looking for is a simple plug-in BT car-adapter that functions with K7x0 phones and allows the Voice Dialling feature..
I'm looking for such a sort of plug-in type for my father future K750, trying to avoid anything that request any charging batteries...
