Quick and easy seems to be the motto of the Parrot PMK5800, a new Bluetooth car kit that promises great quality with no installation necessary. All there is to it is one single piece that plugs directly into your car’s 12 volt accessory plug. The PMK5800 transmits your calls to your stereo via a built-in FM transmitter, which can also transmit music from your A2DP enabled phone.

Along with all this, the Parrot PMK5800 also includes digital signal processing (DSP), echo cancellation, and voice recognition. It will be available this summer for about $120.

The only problem I see with this is that every time you need to make or receive a call, the stereo in your car will have to be on a specific station. If you are listening to a CD or another FM station this could pose a problem. However, if you want an FM transmitter for your A2DP phone and a Bluetooth car kit, too, the Parrot PMK5800 will be a perfect choice.
