1. If the FM transmitter turns off automatically after 1 minute, then the call will be heard through the speakerphone rather than the car's stereo system (unless you turn the FM on again). The reason for this is to save battery life on the speakerphone.
2. You can do this, however, if you don't intend to play music on your BlackBerry via the speakerphone/car stereo, it would be easiest just to use the speakerphone. This is what I use all the time and audio quality is typically just fine. The audio quality as a speakerphone is good for voice.
3. Yes, as long as you are far enough away from your car to disconnect the bluetooth. It typically is disabled if you are >30m (100') away.
4. If you have walked away from your car and the speakerphone has disconnected from your phone and turned off, then you will need to manually turn the speakerphone back on. This requires pressing and holding the main button for ~2 seconds and that's all.
5. You must pair your BlackBerry to the speakerphone the first time you use it (just put it in pairing mode by pressing and holding the speakerphone main button until it says "Pairing mode", then set it up on your phone). After that, you will want to check the box that asks you if you would like to connect automatically (during the first connection), and you will be set. From that point forward, the speakerphone will always connect as soon as you turn it on, so long as your BlackBerry's Bluetooth is enabled.
6. The VM-605 uses your BlackBerry to handle the phonebook. In other words, it handles it exactly the same as it would if you were using the automatic voice dialing from the handheld, because it is using the automatic voice dialing from the handheld. So, if you have John Smith's Mobile number entered in your phone book, you just need to press the speakerphone button to start the voice prompts, then say "Call John Smith Mobile" and your phone will call that number and route the call through the speakerphone.
7. Again, because the VM-605 is a speakerphone, it simply transmits the audio from your phone to the speaker, meaning that as long as you can call the numbers with the automatic voice dialing, you can use the speakerphone. So let's say that John Smith has 4 numbers: Work, Home, Mobile 1 and Mobile 2 and you want to call his office (Work). Then you just say "Call John Smith Work" and it will call the work number. If you simply say "Call John Smith", then the speakerphone will ask you which number. If it gets confused, it will ask you: "Did you say call John Smith Home?", to which your response would be no, then it will likely ask "Did you say call John Smith Work?" to which you would respond yes and the call would be connected.
I hope this helps, but feel free to ask if you have any other questions.
