The map disc ONLY contains maps and POI data
It does NOT contain any software updates for the nav
The nav OS can only be updated via a dealer software update.

New data supplier is now TomTom's TeleAtlas.
Of course the first outlet will be BMW NA.
Maybe more sales channels will appear in the future, eg like the BMW navigation maps website currently under construction (google for it)
