So, if any BMW NA rep has told you one way or another, they're just guessing like the rest of us. In fact, the rep I spoke with stated that he would find out the same day as anyone with internet access.
Thank you for updating us.
I also called again today and talked to Dee, She said the same thing you just did. She did word it a little different and said that that on Aug 5th BMW came out and said that all 3 and 7 series will get the new Idrive starting with the new 09's She claimed that although the M cars are considered different, that for the purpose of the Idrive they would be included.


I think they are all full of shi** now.

I can tell you this much, If the Sales Manager, and BMWNA lied to me, and after all the trouble I had with my 12 hour old 08, I will cancel the order and move on to another car, I will recoupe the lost money on my trade, tax credit, and my deposit one way or another. In MN it's simple, take the dealer to court and you win.
