Motorola RAZR, Verizon Wireless, Bluetooth, iSync

Can anyone confirm that a RAZR V3m from Verizon Wireless (VZW) can work with
iSync via Bluetooth? Web reports are ambiguous: some say it works; some
say VZW has crippled the phone so that its Bluetooth support can only be
used with headsets, not for data exchange with a computer. I know for
sure a T-1 Mobile RAZR works fine this way, but unfortunately switching
providers is not an option.

I'm also curious about the Bluetooth on the LG Chocolate from VZW. I
know iSync doesn't support LG phones, but I've heard reliably that
Bitpim does, via Bluetooth, and I already have Bitpim running. What I
don't know is whether VZW has crippled the Bluetooth support on the
Chocolate, as above.

I have a Verizon RAZR V3c. I assume my experience will be the same as
yours, but I don't know for sure.

BlueTooth works with headsets. iSync will synchronize the address book.
That's about it.

iSync will not synchronize the calendar. If you use a file-browsing
utility, you will find that the media-containing directories (where
wallpapers, ringtones, your photos, etc. are) are inaccessible. Trying
to access them causes your file-transfer application to time-out.
