I just got off the phone with my dealer and he mentioned there hasn't been any info that the US dealers weren't going to offer voice command after a certain date... FYI

My E60 (production week 7) was in for an update today, and the dealer updraded it to version 11, and tried also to add Voice Recognition software. But it dosn't work ! If I understand all your experts on this board right, I can forget everything before September ?? (I do have a voice butto on the steering wheel AND together with the MENU button).

All the best

I find your build date and spec interesting because you are in Europe (well sort of ) and yet you have had Pro Nav on a February build car, when we could only get it from March build, AND you have the extra voice button next to the i-drive menu button.

September is still the word from the dealers at the moment.

Well, I'm picking her up in an hour, so I'll let you know if it's working or not..

Cheesy, but gotta ask; DD, since your brother-in-law has a 645, I'm assuming your sister has your initials?
