Anyone got any experience with using either an Autocom Air , Sena SMH10R or BMW comms with a TFT screen?
Pros and cons of each please.
Thanks.

Thanks.
Would be interested to know people's thoughts on this as well.
I currently own a St1300 and use a Hard wired Autocom. I'm popping into a bmw dealer tomorrow and hopefully placing an order for a R1200 Gsa, So would be keen to know what my options are.
Many Thanks

If you want to use the Nav as well you’ll need a SENA 20 as a minimum. BMW and the older SENA models don’t have BT 4
I also have an Autocom wired system with a bluetooth connection to the BMW Nav V. The new bike has a TFT screen so I purchased Sena 20 s Evo dual set for my wife and I. Unfortunately you can not both connect to the BMW Nav V at the same time therefore she can not hear music or sat nav instructions from the Nav V. If i connect my headset to the TFT and Sat nav , the connections sometimes drop ( either mine from the Nav or TFT or my wife's from the TFT). I had the latest firmware loaded on both headsets. I am beginning to think that the technology is not quite there yet and is rather flaky. The Sena's are on their way back to the retailer.
The autocom system is by far the best albeit wired to the helmets. I have yet to try to see if the autocom can be bluetoothed to the TFT on its own or as well as the Nav V at the same time however I do know it does everything I want it to do when connecte dto the Nav v. I only use the autocom when my wife and I are touring . However , as the new bike has TFT I was thinking of getting one of the neater fitting versions of the bluetooth headsets for use when I ride alone. hence my post.
Any views ?

An update for anyone with an Interphone Tour / Sport / Link and has had connectivity issue with the TFT screen (ie unable to make phone calls) this has now been fixed with a new firware release. I updated my Tour last night and works perfectly with my Rallye TFT screen and now I can make phone calls.
