Thanks!!
I am not aware of any portal to setup email of your own to be visible on Nav Screen (may be a new version of BMW Apps supports it). I know BMW Assist plan with $199 annual subscription in USA can be used for Google Search, Weather etc but emails can only be synched through phone if phone supports MAP. iPhone currently does not support MAP, so you will not be able to get mails, Calendars and text messages to your Nav Screen.

Currently free Assist plan in US allows you to send mail from Google Maps to Nav as a location message which can be used by Nav app. This is based on your email setup with the dealer.

There is an iPhone free App called BMW Connected Drive, you can download it on your phone and can get Web Radio through Bluetooth.
