PCM 2.1 - Parrot and bluetooth, confused.

Hi all,
I hope you'll succeed in helping me in understand this.
I'd like to use my PCM 2.1 (with phone module) to be connected via bluetooth to my iphone4 (to make and receive phone calls)
Since it will be used not on a regular basis, the idea was to go for a cheap solution.
So I decide to exclude dension, mobridge &co.
Looking at parrot web site it seems that they can provide solutions only with/without bose but not with PCM.

BUT...
If I ask to my fiend google I get some hints but no definitive answers.

I am sure that in here I'll get the right answers

My car:
2007 - 997.1
PCM 2.1
Phone module
No CD changer
No Bose

I bought a prepaid SIM card that I leave in the phone module slot. Then when I drive I forward my iPhone to that SIM card number - inexpensive and works.

Ideal solution in the US where you have fair, affordable, unlimited call plans.
Here in Italy/Switzerland it would be expensive (well... Not really, if you consider the price of Parrot solution )
I think that finally I'll go for your solution.
Cheap SIM, hidden number and it's done.
Only one question more. When you forward calls, do you still get the number you're calling or you see your number? (never tried it)

Should be the number calling you that you see. I have two phones that I use, and when ever I forward between them I only see the number calling.

I am still struggling with this.
For this year I used another SIM but I am not 00% saisfied of the solution.
Any clue on the Parrot option?
Thanks in advance.
