Today, i looked at my map and I was like "wow, pretty, but absolutely no street names whatsoever" and snapped a pic with my phone.

Of course if you play with the zoom level the names show up sometimes, and the NAV will tell you what street names to turn, but having names on maps is always helpful, especially if you're trying to get to learn a place, no?

Does anyone know if there's a later firmware that might resolve this or if BMW will be fixing this?

Thanks.

Would it be possible the name is available only in a particular mode or vie? On my 2008 model, street names are not available on the perspective view.
