OK, just after I lost electricity, I did go out to the garage and play a bit with the voice recog. I figured out how to program and dial a couple of numbers.

Thanks for the help! This makes me love my X5 just that much more!

Why doesn't everyone build their roofs as strong as the one on your garage.
I take it you survived hopefully untouched?
That was one mean hurricane,
I was glued to Fox news when I got the time.
I live in an exposed area in Ireland and I HATE big winds,
the rain I can live with,
particularly with my new mudflaps!
Best wishes.
