Kenwood head unit for Droid

This is the one I'm thinking of getting, according to Kenwood's site it has a great degree of compatibility with my Droid.

Although...this brand new Kenwood looks even slicker.

I've had this head unit for over a year and it works great with my droid.

If you search this forum, you will find detailed explanations of exactly what Bluetooth limitations exist and why. However, to summarize, Droid will work with Bluetooth for handsfree dialing.

1) If your Stereo manages it's own contacts address book, you can import your contacts from the Droid, and it will work fine without any limitations, since the Stereo manages the voice dialing functinality, and simply tells the Droid what number to dial.

2) If you have a stereo that relies on the functionality of the Droid to do voice dialing, you can still do hands-free voice dialing with 3rd Party Apps (Voice Dialer HF). However, ANY solution that relies on the Droid for Voice Dialing will also use the Droid Mic - Not the Bluetooth Device Mic - for dialing. For this solution to work, the Droid must be mounted near the caller, since is requires the use of the built in mic to complete Voice Dialing.

Once the call is connected it will route all communication (including mic) over Bluetooth.

This is what I need to be able to do, we have to use handsfree while driving. How do I set the phone up to be able to initiate a call like this from the bluetooth headset?
