Iphone app for pre march 2011 builds
I think BMW should develop an iphone app for us pre-march builds. What you think? even if we dont all the same features as the combox owners....

Post-September 2010 cars are Combox owners. Pre-March 2011 cars will not have 6NR, which at this point is an unknown upgrade to Combox and possibly the 6NF option.

The "March" upgrades are posted elsewhere in this Forum. The software that will be coming with March production will add Facebook and Twitter.........and will at some point be offered in a software update for Combox equiped cars. BMW had stated that there would be software upgrades for Combox and that initially, would not have all the features that it could have. (The question however reamins for pre combox, and whether or not these can be upgraded to include Office, or other future features)

I should also add that according to the latest Roundel, the new software will also include Web Radio, and that this plus the Twitter/Facebook will only be for the I-Phone. As with E-mail and Text messages, there will be limited functionality on the Twitter/Facebook when the car is in motion. Personally, I agree with Snowles and wouldn't have any use for this even if I did have it. (other than Web radio.....but with the choice of media now, doubt this would add anything) I guess you could say that I'm not really in the demographic that BMW is targeting for this new social interactive media.

web radio? i am guessing BMW have never tried to get a decent 3G signal on the move in the UK, how is that going to work? its only recently that DAB works well, I got DAB in my F11 and its very good
I have a combox enabled car so would expect a s/w update is coming to enable this feature but as others have said...twitter? facebook? in the car? why?????????? guess I too am not the target audience for that feature as i don't tweet or post on facebook. |
