"HOWGOZIT" Call from BMWNA

Just got a call from BMWNA to see how things are going with our new e90 purchase, and to ask if we had any suggestions for improvements. The rep tells me that this call is placed to ALL new BMW owners (regardless of model). Just wondering if any of you had received this call yet?

FWIW, my recommendations were:
1) Make voice command features work with Sirius, i.e. say "Channel Twenty Four" and you automatically switch to Sirius Disorder. This function works with FM radio.
2) Program a simple "Go Home" voice command for the Nav, so that the system automatically Starts Guidance to the Home Address.
3) In Nav, don't present the "Start Guidance" option until the House Number cue is presented -- it's easy to forget and start guidance without entering the house number.
4) Enable the door/trunk ajar warnings while the car is stationary - Duh!
5) Enable the Sunroof options with the ignition off.
