Your telling me it's complicated! I've had to argue for 6 days now on 2 separate occasions to get this done and it's still not complete.
BTW... BMW of Arlington wants 1.5 hours of labor to complete the programing. $204
They said they will TRY the programming with the Dension but can't guarantee anything.
Lastly, my suggestion and that of my people on this board are to go with the Dension Gateway 500. I got one for $430 I believe.
From my understanding the issue with JUST playlists or just being able to see just certain things on the iDrive screen have been resolved in newer software updates and that those issue are not part of the Dension.
With the Dension you should be able to see and control everything just as you would on the screen of the iPod. Can anyone confirm this?

Did you install the unit yourself?
