If I do not care about hands free calling, do I really need bluetooth tochnology? What will it do for me other than let me have hands free calling? Is Bluetooth helpful for any other reason than hands free calling?

The nüvi 2597LMT will still work without utilizing the Bluetooth feature.

However it will allow you to connect a compatible smartphone to the device and utilize the Smartphone Link app from a compatible smartphone to use features such as Address Sharing, Weather, Dynamic Parking, and Last Mile.

I don't believe there is any other use for the Bluetooth if you don't want hands free calling, but try to find one without it.

If you do not pay for the extra fees for blue tooth to be connected with your vehicle, then it's not any good for the consumers unless you keep it activated

The Bluetooth feature is for calling. If it is not required then there is no other function.
