Im sure the rest would agree when I say that you're most welcomed. Also, you'll actually be in time for the Singapore decal.

My ride is updated with 16.2 today and the most distinct difference is the eradication of the Warning message

MP3? No, it didn't work with mine, at first I mistakenly popped in a CD-R with multiple sub-directories, no go. Then I burn another without, it didn't work either RDS which was there prior is still there despite some postings (US) that they are gone after 16.2.

Bluetooth and SE P910i - NO! it didn't work either I believe somebody posted on another thread that it did - results are similar with previous version (16.1 on mine) - phone paired alright - worked well immediately after pairing and would not after that When calls are made or taken, the phone returned with "Headset connection lost". This is despite my having taken the trouble to upgrade the phone's firmware to R4A10 from the net and then making a trip to Sony Ericcson's service centre for R4D006 the moment I heard that it is the latest

Bluetooth s/w now has PML service and a couple of other numbers handy though I didn't like it at all

I did however feel that throttle response is much better but I can't say the same for if there is better fuel economy experienced by totoseow - I shall monitor and post results.

tategoi

Perhaps you seemed to be in the know that James is going to the Genting Highlands with his family on 1st May and somehow wish that he could cancel his trip to meet us?

he explained to me this afternoon that in PML, leave is planned 6 months ahead and there is no way I could have known he is not available on 1st May - only that in a previous conversation, he indicated he is keen. James, if you are reading this, look at what a dissapointment you could be - someone is reading your tarot! Precisely what I told you today right?

James or not, I did not put my name there with any assumptions of anyone from PML turning up, just that it would be good to built rapport and network a little.

It is much like when Zag and I went to see R. Friend, some of my friends said that the Warning Message is there to stay - and our persistence paid off - you never know.

So c'mon tategoi, we would see you there right?

Aiyah, how come mine cannot leh??

What do you see on the iDrive screen? Are the titles displayed?

I remember seeing a posting on some cars with CD player whereas some have CD-ROMs, can that be the diff?
