That's good news as I had to rely on my Hungarian conversational skills several times to find where I was going in Hungary (and believe me, my conversational Hungarian skills are rather limited). Of course since maps will be preloaded onto the HDD in newer cars (starting with the F01 launch) DVDs will go the way of the dodo bird.

Unhappy

Seems there are several versions of Europe Navigation Professional DVD 2008-2 (which should include Eastern Europe)
I found on net (torrentz):

1) CD_6376.ISO - ?????? (currently still downloading, says to contain SLO radars)
2) CD_6485.ISO - 20080612 (folder name in directory tpd on disk)
3) In http://www.bmwnavaddpoi.co.uk/2008-2.htm - 2008.04.01 (folder name in directory tpd)

Anybody checked which actually have Eastern Europe?

BTW Currently I tried to burn on DVD+R DL file CD_6485.ISO and on ACME disks it starts to show map, but crashes . On PHILIPS certified (much more expensive) does not work at all - should please insert DVD.

Exclamation

Yes! I succeeded to make Navigation professional 2008-2 DVD (with Eastern Europe) to work on my BMW (still with very old firmware, scheduled to update after 1-2 weeks ).

So how I did.

First I tried DVD+R DL (Dual Layer) several disks, all failed to be recognised by my BMW.
Then I deleted some unneeded languages from ISO file content, so that it fits to normal DVD and it works fine!

In more details:
1) Copied all DVD content to HardDisk. (you can burn to DL and then read or use VirtualDisk to mount ISO).
2) Deleted unneeded language directories from /tpd/ntcBeuFNM_eu_20080620/ (in my case removed directories FRE, GER, ITA, SPA)
So content size is ~4Gb !!!

About maps quality. Baltic states maps have just few major roads, and ~100 meters of crossing streets. But works excellently, even shows Arrow view in HUD and e-woman says when to turn.
