Satellite radio from iPhone?

My vehicle is on order and in thinking back I realized I bought the smartphone/BMW apps but skimped on the $350 add-on for sat radio. I figured without the smart phone connection I could just run my Sirius radio app on my iPhone and have it play through the x3 radio anyway. I guess the thing I'm going to lose is control of stations through idrive?

Anyone else doing this?

I have the sat radio, but you can run the XM/Sirius app or Pandora on the Iphone to the BMW radio using Bluetooth. As you mentioned, it must be controlled via the Iphone.
