iDrive Touch for X3
I've recently ordered an X3 (back in April) which is due for delivery early September - does anyone know whether the new iDrive Touch is being rolled out into the X3 cars?
The car will have Professional Nav if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance Gadgetz |

You guys are not missing much, I had a touch pad on my A6, it was fun for about a week and that was it. Its easier to enter letter and numbers with the i-drive. The touch pad knob is already on the LCI F10 which is in the showroom at some dealers. Early reviewer said the touch pad knob did not feel as solid as the old knob.

...and it appears that BMW wont be releasing the software updates to our pre-8/13 NBT X3's, so those of us with Android phones are left out in the cold.
