The Media Package thread got me thinking, what do people view in their i-drive screen, so here's a poll? (my 1st one on this forum).

I'll start things off, my usual viewing is Navigation Left (Perspective) & either Journey or Genral Computer to the right. I use Voice or S/W buttons to change entertainment media etc.

You left out "None of The Above", as some of us don't have the split screen that comes with Navigation. My screen stays on either the CD I'm playing or the Sirius screen to see Artist/Song information...

What if I only have Business Nav and thus the small screen?

I usually fiddle with the iDrive screens all the time when on freeway, depending on what interest I have: entertainment/navigation/OBC/phone. Not so many times in Climate...
