 The ModooFree BT is a Rearview Mirror Hands Free Car Kit with Bluetooth. When you receive a phone call, the caller's number is actually displayed on the mirror. I don't know, sounds a little distracting to me, especially if you need to see what the car behind you is doing.
Still, it's definitely a unique idea. ModooFree says that the car kit works with all GSM/CDMA/TDMA/PDC cell phones and all cellular networks. The ModooFree BT features a 12-digit caller ID, voice announcing for incoming phone numbers, changeable ring tones, digital noise and echo suppression, a surge prevention circuit, and more.
The ModooFree Plus BT unit not only utilizes Bluetooth, but parking sensors as well. According to ModooPlazaProducts.com, the sensors, located inside the rearview mirror, can detect obstacles in the back which cannot be seen from the rearview mirror, and indicates that distance via LCD digits on the mirror.
The ModooFree was made in Korea, so there aren't many links for purchasing in the U.S. But I did manage to find two sites that are selling it between $139-$159: Backup Eyes.com and MillionBuy.com.

It may be a good idea but the mirror is the wrong place. A heads up display at the bottom of the windshield would not require taking your eyes off the road. I only glance at the rear view mirror, not stop and read it. This can only cause more accidents. Bill Baka
