no, it's not standard. it's an option you can get if you have professional navigation. you have to pay a fee to enable it. that's about 150 euros a year. no, you don't need any GPRS devices or a phone. it works just in the iDrive by the normal antenna.
no, that's not what i mean. you can go to BMW Online through the menu communication and then BMW Online. i'll post pics tonight when my dad is back from work. promised

. So you can upgrade it if you want just by paying that 150 ? a year since i have the professional gps?
What can you all see with it; the weather, most important news,...?
If it is just that... not really interested since you already can search for the main things (like gasstations,...) on the gps to buy the newspaper yourself
. Then you have more details of the news and weather and you don't need to sit in your car whole the time, but can lay on the beach for that 1 ? a paper 
instead of 150 ? a year 
.EDIT: while typing this message i didn't saw your other post about the functions sese. Sorry for that

but if you buy a newspaper every day it adds all up to 365? a year. if you subscribe BMW Online you only have to pay 150? a year
There you have a point. But i meant only when i'm not home i would buy the paper sometimes (like on vacation). I don't pay 365 ? a year since i always get the newspaper for free from my neighbour when he read it (around 9 am in the morning i already get it). But when you can check your emails etc. why not .
