So in my M3 I could search for POIs by entering a portion of the place's name once I had selected the deepest level in the hierarchy of type of place I was serching for, example:

RECREATION/DINING > RESTAURANTS > ALL > ENTER NAME

If I entered no name, it would just search for all restaurants within the specified search radius. Or, it would limt hte search to only those restaurants containing the letters I entered.

But curiously, on the 645 system, it doesn't let me enter the name of places. Is this due to an older iDrive system? I aready bought the latest nav DVD for 2008 direct from BMW, but I'm wonderng wheter I also need to upate the iDrive software itself?

Doesn't make sense taht the m3 would allow me to enter place names but the 645 would not.

Thanks!
