I found out that the upcoming new 3-series will have additional 3d view (and additional pictograms) on the navi screen. (with Navigation Professional only). So we can/could expect some upgrade for 5- and 6-series too.
Does anybody have more details about this ?
TIA

It has already been posted on another thread that from week 9 production (March 05) the E60 will get the bird's eye 3D view on nav pro as part of a package of model upgrades.
The main question for existing nav pro owners now is will the upgrade be made available with a future i-drive software upgrade.

Maybe BMW will provide a retrofit with soft touch keys for 1800 bucks and charge the installation to the warranty like when the 1st navi retrofits for E60's became available.
