iPhone 4 integration to X3

Just picked up my 35i on Monday......Love it!

Space Gray Metalic
Black Nevada Leather
Fineline Wave Wood
Sport Activity
Convenience
Cold Weather
Dynamic Handling
Premium
Technology
Auto High Beams
Satilite Radio
Premium Hi-Fi
Smartphone Integration
309 Wheels, P-Zero Performance Tires

Only disapointment is that the iPhone 4 is not one of the phones that is part of the Smartphone integration. Unable to take advantage of "Office" to get emails and messages. I know the snap in adapter is suppose to be available in April or May, but I still don't think that will give me the "Office".

Does anyone have any information regarding the iPhone 4?

As soon as the sun comes back out I'll post pictures.

Thanks

No office functions for iPhones. Basic snap-in adapter for iPhone 4 is already available on both sides of the pond

I'm confused. I thought the iPhone provided BMW Office functionality. That's what the guy who sold me the car told me, and when i look up BMW Office on BMW's website, the compatible phone include the iPhone 4. Am I missing something?

If you go to BMWUSA, highlight "Owners", scroll down to "Bluetooth Technology" open it, go to "View current available phones", under series chose "X3", select your wireless carrier (either AT&T or Verizon), go to "Next". What will come up are all of the phones that will work in the X3, AS A PHONE. All of the choices on the right EXCEPT "Ofice" will work with an iPhone4. Check "Office" and you will see the (4) phones that will work on AT&T and (0) on Verizon. Not the iPhone4 or any iPhone.

I am told that BMW is working on adding the iPhone4. When.....who knows.

Definitely no office functionality for iPhone 3G or 4 at present. It's all Bluetooth data transfer so they could fix it with a software update but don't hold your breath because it takes them a year to bring out a new snap-in adaptor

Choosing Verizon and Office on BMWUSA as Ovrdriv suggested shows no compatible phones. Could that be correct?
