Use the onstar speakerphone?

So in my few talks with onstar, and using my onstar phone I have decided that the speakerphone works really really good. I am wondering has anyone ever attempted to tie this speakerphone into a cell phone via cable or bluetooth..... Hmmmmm these are the things that keep me up all night long

Can't you just order phone service through Onstar?

I beleive you can but it means $$$ where as a blue tooth link would not be a subscription service but instead just use the existing equipment

yes you can order phone service through OnStar, its through Verizon (this is in addition to the minutes you can buy).

Yeah, you can get a shared plan with Verizon, starting at like $50/month . It's f-ing rediculous cause I was going to see if they'd add it to my plan. Used to be the shared plans were like $10 for the additional line and for the one I wanted the minutes would have stayed the same.

I like using OnStar, except that when you call someone you have to slowly say each digit. It gets irritating, and it's worse when the robot tells you "slower, please"!! Wrong answer when I'm already pissed!

I never have that experience.... I say the number, normally fast, and it has never once asked me to repeat or slower, or even gotten a number wrong. I wonder if that is something they fixed in the 06..... I already use Tmobile and I am not going to switch, and I have some onstar minutes, but they are really expensive. I would love to know if anyone has done what I am talking about.
