Text messaging with Ford Sync
The Sync, which is a MS product, has a messaging feature, where the car's system can send service warnings and status messages to a paired phone through text messaging or e-mail. When I attempt to turn this feature on, the system reports that the connected phone is not capable of connecting this way.
The Ford dealer suggests I use a Windows Mobile or Android phone, saying "all Apple products are crap." The dealer had originally said that I would not be able to pair my iPhone with the car at all and that is certainly not true. Is this just a Microsoft doesn't want to play nice with iPhone issue or is there some setting or other option that I am missing?
