Star Trek reference in Transformers.

On the Trek Movie Report its notes the reference in transformers where Bumblebee alludes to its origins. As it can't talk like the other Autobots it must communicated through the cars radio. At his point Bumblebee points up and we hear the voice of Nichelle Nichols as Uhura saying "hailing frequencies open" which Sam recognises and from this establishes that Bumblebee is from another world. There is another reference later when Bumblebee is talking with Optomus Prime and we hear Uhura say ‘opens a channel’ this being to Optimus Prime.

It is just interesting that from those simple well known phrases we can draw conclusions to Autobots origins.
