N8 not compatible with CK-100?

Question

Can anyone help me? I was assured by VOdafone that when upgrading my Nokia 5800 to N8 it'd still be compatible with my existing CK-100 car kit. But it isn't working right.
I have two issues-
First, the Ovi satnav no longer plays through the CK-100 - music from car stereo isn't muted and sound only comes from pathetic in-phone loudspeaker so is hardly audible)
Second- the voice dial no longer works- when i press the button on car kit, i get the "speak now" prompt OK, but it doesn't seem to hear anything (this works OK on the phone when it isn't in the car).
Any ideas? Which part do I chuck in the bin?!

Hi there, the issue of no navi prompts comes from Ovi Maps and is not the fault of the CK-100. I have raised this with the program team but not sure when it will be fixed.
The voice dial may be improved if you complete the voice dial exercise when in the car. This way, the handset will match your voice from the car environment better (remember the phone holds all the voice recognition software, the kit merely activates it).
Vodafone were correct that the CK-100 and N8 are compatible, hopefully the maps issue will be fixed soon, and the above will improve the voice dial for you.
Hope this helps.
