Does anybody from Germany already did the update successfully?

Regards from Germany.

The languages are coded into the system (and can only be changed by your dealer) so an update of the Navigation OS should not change them.

I did a successful installation here in Australia and I still have the same language options (English, Deutch, Francais)

One other nice touch (I'm yet to drive with it!):
- When you switch from 'Direction of Travel' to 'Perspective' view the map tilts and the car icon fades out and then changes. It looks great!
- Still having the same redraw glitches with screen refreshes but this is a problem I've had (and a few others) since v26 so it is no worse. I suspect the 'official' release may address these issues.

Thanks again Jeff.

Looks like there will be no official version with perspective view, BMW has stopped developing it. That was mentioned in a German BMW board by a betatester of the software. Read/translate Chaplin's messages:

Loading this beta release appears to put the nav drive into Euro mode (no accept screen, units in yards rather than feet)

So I would assume that this Euro mode will not interfere with the tuner USA AREA and thus with the OEM Sirius tuner. Can somebody with Sirius can check its functionality with this Beta version?

Thanks

This has no impact on the radio tuner. It will remain in USA mode if that's what it is currently configured for.

Sirius Worked for me on an X5 and E38 with BMW Sirius..... That was my first check on both systems.
