What you'll get from Progman updates after ver.25.x :
1)You get the new silverish UI
2)Extra search functions/menus in Navigation mode
3)Faster response from your i-Drive system-well, atleast that's what BMW claims...
4)Supports newer mobile phones for the TCU (iPhone/Windows Mobile PDA's/etc...)
5)LCI headlights/taillights retrofit ready(which is only offered from ver.28.x onwards) if you plan to do so...
That's the things that i can think of now of what you'll get from the latest Progman Update...Others will definitely chime-in and add to the list of what you'll get...
So, it's up to you...whether the purpose of updating meets what you plan to do on the car!
