Audibly or visually? Either way you'd have to find a way to connect to a device that is already pulling email and implement some new software...unless its already built into the PCM which mine doesn't support.

It is built into the PCM, but it appears to be highly dependent on the software in your phone. Some mail software works, some doesn't. I found that out because I switched away from one client (called "email," not sure of the actual developer because the "about" doesn't say) to Alto. The old app syncs with PCM, Alto doesn't.

If it does work, all you have to do is tap on the email icon (bottom right, IIRC) and you'll go to the email screen. You can read the full text of emails from there.

Not that I particularly recommend this. It's distracting if you're driving, and if you're not, might as well just check the phone.
