Iceman,
Any idea on when this will be implemented? Are they working on it? Do you have faith that this will come through as a software upgrade later?

They are working on bringing both features, MP3 and DVD.
It currently looks like September05, MY06.
DVD I don't know if this will be given to the US market, since TV is not available there either. But for the DVD we will get charged if we want this feature.

For interest, the E90 3 Series is supposed to come out with a new DVD player for the rear that is removable from the car.

They say you can then have entertainment in the car and take it with you to your hotel room

I think BMW needs to start outsourcing their electronic engineering to Japan. That'll guarantee the stability of electronic components.
