IE7 has a spell check too which (for once) is easier to use than the Firefox one IMO The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

OS X has spell checking built in system wide
But then you knew that right
Anyway...
As I said MY2008.5 has no cradle. MY2008 has. Showroom models will vary in age. My XS was ex-stock so had the cradle and is a MY2008 D3.

Yeah I guess that's it.
The D3 with the cradle I saw was a 2008MY & the one without is a 2008.5MY
I am scheduled to replace my D3 later this year. Where I live the phone signal is crap. When I use the phone on Bluetooth it is not very reliable. However, when the phone is in it's cradle the system is great.
If available, I would buy the cradle and external antenna system again.
What is the chance that I could strip out all the required kit from my current car and refit it into the new car?

I have been told this cannot be done as there is no input to head unit for cradle.(From dealer,check it out just in case)
You could probably get a cradle to suit your phone(A second hand Bury kit if you could come across one as you only need cradle,cradle mount and lead) and use power and aerial connections on it and bluetooth connection to D3 unit.Just make sure you find the right wires for power and don't connect the others so phone thinks it is not in cradle.(Nokia anyway)You have to cut off connector that plugs into head unit and find the power wires ,aerial is seperate anyway.Did this for a friend in his VW passat with a Nokia ck-15 car kit,used his bury cradle and stick on aerial on windscreen.Assuming you have a Nokia 6230i for existing cradle.
Still prefer fin aerial and cradle in centre console,but as Simon posted earlier,it would be hard to wire in aerial and take it out of D3
