USING VOICE to "find nearest gas station, hotel, etc."??

in my old x5, i used to be able to say "find nearest gas station" and the nav would automatically list the nearest gas stations. similar for other points of interest.

but I can 'not' seem to find a voice command to automatically list points of interest in the new E70. i looked at the list of voice commands in the manual... but none of them relate to points of interest.

has anyone found a way to do this?

i use it for entering addresses while driving... easy to just say the 'city' or 'street' name.... generally works.

but want to figure out how to get the points of interest...

On my E53 I just say "Gas Stations" and it returns the list, sorted by distance.
