You can do it with the CARK112 but it's a bit fiddly when driving and may
not really be safe or legal! You have to go into the BT menu of the
currently connected phone, select the connection and press disconnect (sorry
don't have a 6600 so not sure exactly where in the menu this will be). Then
do the same for the other phone and press connect, as I said, not something
you would want to do while negotiating a roundabout! Thankfully I only have
one phone so it leaves my hands free for kebab, beer can, cigarette and the
occasional touch of the steering wheel : )

You can pair up to 8 devices but you can only connect one device to one
other device at a time. To chage devices you need to disconnect from one and
then connect to another.

and by the time you have done this, the caller might have hung up or the
answer phone kicked in.
