New car radio with bluetooth

2009-11-10 by Stefan Bauer, tagged as privat
Today i could afford a new Alpine CDE-103BT car radio with bluetooth. The main facts are

USB-Connector
MP3/WMA/AAC
Hands-free equipment to use my cell phone in free-speech mode

Right now i'm pretty happy with it as it's a big advantage to have the hands free while driving and be able to dial people through the radio itself. Unfortunately i'ma bit picky about the voice-quality so i'm still undecided where i will place the microphone in my car.

I'm doing in 2010 for fun the final examination for the Fachinformatiker für Systemintegration in munich. It costs less than 100EUR for external attendees at the IHK Munich. For the ones who are interested why i did it for fun - here comes the answer. After more than 10 years of experience in this business, i just want to see how challenging such a test could be.
