You only have that difference in Europe if I am not mistaking. The Business sat nav only displays arrows, the map function has been removed from the system, hence making it around 2K cheaper then the Pro version. All other functions are still there.

From my understanding...

- no map display (as Raayman already said)
- smaller screen
- different iDrive controller with less possible movements

Supposedly the minor March update is to bring some form of map display to the Business Navi. No idea if that is a software update, so if this update can be applied to existing Business Navi owners.

Strangely, business satnav lets you set waypoints - i.e. a series of destinations, whilst the more expensive pro nav does not.

You can also play mp3 DVD discs with the Business Nav, after setting your destination & taking the nav disc out- not possible with SatNavPro. :mad:
