Full internet possible?
I just ordered an X3 with Professional Nav. (April Build) I did not get the 6NR option as I only use Blackberry's. Does anyone know if it is possible to get full internet access on the nav either through an upgrade or tethering?
Thanks -CR |

Internet is now an option in the UK. Gives you a full browser in iDrive

The web access is an additional monthly option to the supplied BMW Assist (in US).

The dealer's internal fact sheet in the uk describes the "Internet" option as "£95 for a 3 year subscription", but it does say "no retro fit" even though no suggestion of internal hardware. Someone here posted a quote from BMW stating hardare upgrade involved, - but thats got to be marketing pants or just lazy BS ? In the unlikely event I apologise in advance to BMW if in fact they are being straight.

Google search yes. Full internet access no.

I'm not convinced a full browser would be particularly useful using the iDrive controls but we'll wait for feedback

I see you can get TV on your Nav Screen in UK. Pretty cool but a bit expensive. Also, I am sure it is disabled while driving so just like anything, how useful would it be. -CR |

BMW online works in motion for me (news, weather, sport etc)
You do have to accept a warning about using in motion
