After the software upgrade was complete, I noticed several changes in my iDrive while going through various functions.

Radio
- unchanged

Nav
- ability to turn off the display of the cellphone signal/radio box in the upper right corner

Tele
- different layout by having more options when in a call (i think it looks better)
- ability to create conference calls when in a call

Other menu functions are slightly different


Performance wise? - I don't feel any significant changes
I brought my car in this morning for a number of things, i.e. door lock recall, scheduled service, etc. and my SA told me they were replacing my HPFP. No software, but completely replacing it.

By the way, Parkview is the best. They are so damn nice to me and you are in and out quickly. Plus, I got a brand new 2011 328xi with 600km! as my loaner.
