I dont think it is that necessary. Especially when you have an iPhone.

If that's really true, I will wait until that comes out before I get the Tech package!

Great - more shit that has nothing to do with the driving experience. Hopefully they will also be the first with an in car toilet.

Note, BMW Online is already available in select countries across Europe for I-Drive (and the M3). The new connected drive just seems to allow full time access to the internet, rather than select access with email, weather, stock prices, etc. with the existing BMW online system.

Question is if this is retrofitable, BMW says it's a factory option including a flat rate.

Best regards, south
