Although Jammy has explained it but I thought I will clear it.

Stage I:
CIC which gives you
Radio
CD player (you can store music on the hard driver
Naviation
Phone (if you have mulf/ TCU in your boot).

Stage II:
Combox which MAY* give you
- 6FL connecting your ipod / iphone with standard usb cable
- 6NF BMW applications (update Facebook status, tweets, internet radio)
- 6NR ability to play videos off you iphone / ipod
- Bluetooth if you havn't had it.
- A2DP Bluetooth music streaming
- BMW internet**
- BMW live**


*depends on the software of your CIC and what hardware you buy. 6NR require different hardware to other options.
** Requires tethering from your phone.

Hope it clears.
