I can't tell the difference - Anyone know how it activates i.e. what speed it works at?

I think the whole idea is to not feel it...if you could shut it off and turn it back on you'd probably notice it.

Didn't Infiniti have this on there car about 10 years ago? I remember the ads with Jonathan Pryce panting in a black suit demonstrating how it works on a white board.

Hmm...I think BMW has made considerable refinements already in their braking system. I remember my old 5 series (one before E39) jerks noticeably before coming to a full stop. Then in my old 7 (E38), I noticed improvements but still could feel a slight jerk. Now with this new E60 (w/o the above technology), the jerk is almost completely gone. I'd have to say good job BMW !
