I have spoken with my parts representative here in Calgary and there appears to be no information on the ETA of the new ipod interface for the E60.

Any news from any members out there and in particular the European members who seem to hear about new parts becoming available before us in NA?

Iceman, any info from your contacts in Germany?

 

No news yet.

 

Thanks for your speedy response.

 

According to the BMW press release, this should be available by July, right?
Any other communication regardin this from BMW?

 

It'll be available by the end of July 2008.

 

Exactly, and then once July 2008 rolls around, expect to wait until July 2009. And then once that happens, expect to way until July 2000 and hell freezes over.

 

You meant 2010? Not 2000, right?
Well people, if you don't have more than 8GB of your favorite music, I suggest to burn your MP3 on DVD or CD (700M. I bet that it's way more than enough for your favorite songs.

 

I meant it more of how you say it. You say "July two thousand and eight, July two thousand and nine, July two thousand and hell freezes over." As in it's never going to happen. Maybe it was a stretch on my part, sorry.

 

Some of us with the early model E60's cannot get MP3 playback from the CD, hence the desire for a good ipod solution.

 

I don't think it's going to be ready THAT soon.

my530i - you are the forums resident electrical genius - why can't they sort it out?
