The white cable vs y-cable is not contingent on the NAV. It is contingent on Assist+Enhanced Bluetooth. You do not need Apps to use the standard Apple cable. Just Nav+Assist+Enhanced Bluetooth. Hopefully, that puts a nail in the coffin. |

Using Google Maps in the BMW Remote App to look up destinations and send to your GPS is a godsend. Especially in LA where you have no idea if the city is Los Angeles, Culver City, Hollywood, etc which will take forever to figure out in the GPS system.

...you know you are allowed to use your iPhone IN your car, right? Just look it up there and then plug it into the GPS like normal. That's not much of an incentive for me.

it's convenience. i can get an address sent to my gps in a few seconds while driving vs using one hand to hold the phone and the other hand to fumble around with the wheel. apparently you don't have this feature. |

entering an address into iDrive sucks. It's tedious, and half the time it can't even find the address I want. Sending it from the phone is SO much easier and faster.

You still get album art without the adapter? Or is that because you have enhanced USB?

Bummer. I really wish BMW explained exactly what the enhanced USB got you better. I assumed it was just related to the Apps, which I didn't care about. (Twitter, FB, Pandora, etc.) If I had known it made just playing my own music a better experience I would have sprung for it.
