It seems in the US it is like over here, radio business is the satndard radio. This radio does not support MP3. With nav you get radio professional, what supports MP3 - after a software update in September.
It does not look like you can order radio pro without nav in the US, therefore it seems you are right, the USA has to wait until September and then only cars with nav get it.

But in the US Manual, it clearly states that we have MP3 functionality, even shows pictures and instructions how to select mp3 files from CD. What up with that?

But the manual is for ALL E60's, also for the ones with nav. And with nav you'll get it in September after the software update.

I went to my dealer asking why I don't have MP3 capability, along with a list of other maintenance work and problems. I said it was in the manual that MP3 capability was part of the car. They had the car for a few days...

When I got the car back, the work order said "MP3 capability is a mistype in the manual - e60s will not get this functionality."

Sheeeeesh.

that's another option but not being to control the ipod via the i-drive is a pain :\ much rather burn my own cd's and control everything with the i-drive.

Wrong.
Without nav and with radio pro you can have it now with a software update, with nav you can get it with a software update in September.

You NEED radio pro!

The radio business is the standard radio on the E60.
I am not sure if they Logic/ includes the radio pro over in the US. You can have L7 (technically) with the radio bus, so I am not sure what radio you have when you have L7 in the USA.
Anyways, you NEED radio pro. With nav (bus or pro) you have the radio pro.
When you have nav you have to wait until September for the new software.
