Hey guys, I was wondering if there's a software upgrade or anything that'll enable the i-drive in my Canadian Spec E60 to read chinese.
I'd love to be able to read the chinese titles of the songs that I'm listening to....you guys can read chinese in your i-drive right?

Martinngan, you can read the song title??? What about MP3? I'm in Canada too and I have never see a song title on my I-Drive, even for English song. I don't think Chinese is available on I-Drive, even in China. I think the only Asian language available on I-Drive is Japanese.

Hmm, Martinngan, when did you purchased your car? What year is it? I picked mine up in September 2005 and does not show me any CD text at all. I have RDS on my radio, but the song title from the radio station does not shows up on I-Drive either.

I got my car just a month ago, are you sure you burnt your songs in MP3 format instead of conventional format which can also be played on normal cd players? if you burnt them in mMP3 format it can hold over a hundred songs. You know how there's a bunch of numbers in circle on the I-drive screen when you're listening to a cd right? If you put a mp3 format CD, it becomes a list of song titles instead of the numbers in circle.
