djshtr is on a distinguished road
It's not about figuring it out. Any idiot with 5 minutes and the ability to turn a knob will figure it out. What i'm saying is that the way BMW has it setup sub-optimal. To catch up with the competition, they need to:

- add touch interface
- pop up keyboard to type in "MAIN ST." instead of scrolling with the damn wheel
- Add a better perspective mode like everyone else
- Add joystick so while you're driving, you can pan ahead to the next step, or look around

these things will let bmw catch up with just about every other nav system.. in order to pass the OEM competition, they need to extract traffic info from XM (like the pioneer deck, and lexus nav).
