New features.
1. All new font - taller skinnier font for all menus.
2. iMenu rearranged - date/time separate from display settings. BT menu separate.
3. New wording for soft, normal, intensive auto vent settings.
4. when scrolling in manual mode on the FM tuner, if you change station rather rapidly, it will actually stay on the station your listening to until you stop moving it. no more waiting while it hits every fuzzy station in between. used to do this on the E60s.
5. keypad permanantly added to bottom of screen while in an active call.
6. new additions to the OSD menu. hold i drive controller down for 15 secs. click 3 right, 3 left, 1 right, 1 left, 1 right and then push down. just do it and you will see.
7. must be others but my wife drives the car mainly.
Get that 07' disk online mate!

These are not changes in PROGMAN 23, they occurred in earlier versions, I believe 22.x

Update on 2006 cars. BMW knows people want this and they are investigating whether it is feasible. It will take up to 9 months or so to make any announcement if they do. Any update that might be forthcoming would require a tuner, flashing the car with new software, and a new nav DVD among other things.

I would imagine a retrofit would be costly as it would include new hardware or replacing the whole iDrive unit. I would be shocked if the retrofit was under 1k if there is to be one.

Anyway here is some info on coverage and how it works.
