Whoops, I thought I posted the link. I must have been interrupted mid-post and forgot to paste it in.

All fixed now...

The button for the CD tracks has different functions depending on the screen context. It can double as a radio station preset button, a manual seek, button, a scan button, etc. It also allows you to scroll through lists like the phone directory, etc.

The button next to the CD slot is something I rarely use but a passenger might, I suppose.

The latest BMW magazine had a great article on the future of Voice Commands. In a nut shell this is what we can expect.

Driver: I am on AA Flight 123.
Car: Your flight is scheduled to leave on time. There are no traffic problems on route. Your estimated arrival at the airport is 2.30pm.

Driver: my feet are cold.
Car: Would you like warm air directed to your feet?
Driver: yes
Car: Sure thing dude

It was not one of the PDFs from the issue that they posted on OC unfortunately.
