I've put the NAV and iDrive on my mental must have list for the next BMW I buy... but I'd like some opinions and thoughts from those of you who have the system.

Does the NAV allow you to see POI along the route, or search for them? Things like gas stations, Starbucks, etc... How are the voice commands for the system? Are they useful and can you do most of the functions with them? How about notifications for turns along your route, etc?

I've learned that not all NAV systems are created equal, so I'm wondering how the BMW system stacks up. I'm not too worried about the iDrive (regarless of how much bashing I read), figuring it shouldn't be that hard to learn.

Any and all thoughts or comments welcome. Thanks.
