So, I have searched, read the manual and played with every menu on the D3. I can't figure out how to populate my phonebook. I have an iPhone so I cant Bluetooth the data in. When I go to the AV menu and select the BT phone option, I am presented with the screen that has the 6 speed dial positions. If I select "ph book" I get a screen where the only option is "esc". I can populate the speed dial list by selecting direct dial but dont see any option to name those entries. They show up as the number or unknown. My phone is connected and registered. What am I missing?

Apple didn't include the bluetooth profile to send your contacts over

Ya, I know. I said that. My question is how do I manually enter my phonebook data. Surely there is a way other than Bluetooth.

Nope. All you can store are the five main numbers and you can't input the names to those either

Surely you Jest! This expensive piece of equipment and you cant manually input info into the phone book? You can manually input into the address book. If this is true, what an incredible oversight. I am sure there are many bluetooth phones that wouldnt work because so many of the service providers cripple the bluetooth profiles.

Plenty of threads covering that if you would like to search
