Is it possible to use Call Number from within TTN5 from BT PDA (Not a PDA Phone) Using another BT Cell phone?

I am trying to use Mpx220 phone with Ipaq Rx3115. With a BT GPS receiver also connected is it possible to use TT5 Call Number to place a call to a nearby POI?

And - suprisingly - the "Call Number" feature doesn't work with all integrated PPC Phones, at least at the present time. I'm based in the U.S. and use the Verizon xv6600, which is a duplicate of the MDAIII/PDA2k and other Blue Angels phones, all of which readily support the TomTom's "Call Number" feature.

The Verizon xv6600, however, is adapted to the CDMA network protocole which is the more common standard in North America, and apparently this protocole difference renders the "Call Number" feature useless.

I've been in touch with TomTom's support division, and they've been quite attentive, much more so than I've read about from other forum contributers.. The issue of "Call Number" inoperability has now beeen forwarded along to their engineering division, and I'm planning a campaign of pleasant persistance to hopefully see that this highly useful feature is correctly implemented in an upcoming product upgrade.

Thanks. I though TECHNICALLY I could use PDA to call number. (May be even as hands free the same way as TTG does it.)

Is it something TTN not implemented for commercial reasons? Is it possible for someone to implement as a third party add on?
