You can scroll through your ipod by either playlist or artist, or album, or podcast, or song. I've only played with it a little so far, but I like it.
Note that if you get the retrofit they will upgrade the idrive software so you'll lose all your presets. Not a big deal, but you may want to write down your radio settings.
My only complaint so far is that I have a 4th gen nano and the kit won't charge it. But, I'm going to order the Scosche adapter that will charge it. I think the Scosche part is only $20. This brings up another point: the installation of the ipod interface is not cheap, but it works seamlessly with the navigation system (or at least has on mine so far).

I do not have the idrive but I have the ipod integration and it sucks that I can't browse via album, seems I can only do playlist
edit: lol looks like I am full of fail, after reading the manual, I need to change the slot to get album play
