Answer 2: No, but ill be shocked if it isnt added in a future update.
Question 3:
Can the cars Blue&Me work with the device to give it commands?
Answer 3: Yes & No, You can say "Satnav" and it'll open the TomTom Menu on the device, and then you can use the steering wheel arrows to scroll on the devices menus, but it truely is adding 1 voice command + 6-button presses to a 1 touch screen press. (thus, pointless.)
