19.1 will still not have MP3 for nav pro cars.
20 will have it, release is not earlier than December.

And 17.1 killed by amber LEDs :thumbsdown:
Not sure there is any rule like in the software market

[/quote]There at least tends to be such a rule in software development; however, I am not sure that the rule never is violated. It would be nice if 19 added something new of significance. And, there always is the issue of what constitutes a "new feature."

[/quote]I know, but this is almost 100% sure now, that 20 will not be released before December 2005! As allways, BMW is pushing it back. But this is the first time that I know it is on the list.
And 20 will be the next MAJOR update.
19.0 and 19.1 only have minor bug fixes.

I am having many problems with bluetooth on my current CIP version and also with using the Idrive in general (scrolling between the 4 'categories' can happen at the wrong moment and I can end up in the wrong place sometimes).
Does anyone know if these bugs are resolved in the 19s? I think I have 17.x now.

I have been holding-off waiting for my next dealer visit so that I can get the latest SW while I am in, mainly I am after MP3 playback. Dec is a long time to wait for the other issues that I need seeing to (mainly creaks/rattles). I dont want to go for 19.x only to find 20.x offers some great new stuff (holographic displays of naked dancing girls would be nice

Gosh - this SW business really makes life interesting. When will it ever stop eh?

It is on the "To-Do" list for version 20!
The remaining 5% are just remaining, since it is still possible that it will be pushed back again...

Marty, As you have bus nav the latest s/w should give you mp3, but check with the dealer first. Mine is going in on the 26th Sept for service plus rattles/squeaks etc and maybe s/w 19.x. Benhams tell me that due to early build date mp3 will not be available. They had a data sheet which gave earliest build dates that could have mp3 activated by s/w update, I think for bus nav cars it was Sept 04. They suggested I may need a new radio unit. I have asked them to send a PUMA to Bracknell to see if mp3 can be provided. Previously when I requested BFD to be activated by s/w update they also said my vehicle was too early for this function but they sent PUMA to Bracknell who provided additionl s/w to be installed before the cip update and all was well. I will post after my visit to dealer.

Lack of MP3 with Nav was one of the reasons that I didnt opt for Nav. I wanted MP3 integrated more, Nav I can get when I need it from Tom Tom. Still feel your frustrations though guys...
