I must agree my X5 NAV is alittle better than my 550 Nav.. But you can input the zip code instead of the city name on our E60's.. The 7ers prospective view on their Nav has street names and freeway names too.. Ours just lines I hope they have an update for that.. I tried to put the X5 and 7er DVD Nav disk in my car but it won't read

I get freeway names on mine in perspective mode when the scale is at or under 1 mile.

Oh well, wait for next Progman update. It'll be costly to me, though.

Honda/Acura navigations are by far the best.
I agree. My wife's Honda has a touch screen nav interface...the ability to search more categories...ability to search by name...even by telephone number for points-of-interest! Strange that its 5 years older than my e60 and has more features.
