Blackberry, Bluetooth and a group of persons

One of our Blackberry users complained that the bluetooth connection between the device and his AUDI became unstable for some reason.

He sent me an error message saying: Uncaught exception:java.lang.ClassCastException

I googled for this error message an found an entry in www.blackberryforums.com saying that this error could be caused by adding a group to the personal addressbook. Hard to believe but nowadays nothing seems to be impossible. I phoned the user and asked if he recently added a group to his addressbook. He confirmed. So I asked him to delete the group and to try bluetooth again.

Today he confirmed that after deleting the group from his addressbook, the bluetooth connection works again.

The device is a BB 8800 running with firmware 4.2.1.101. As the forum thread is from 2006, I guess that this error is already fixed in a newer firmware version. Have to check this.
