Ya there are some areas where BMW is ahead like bluetooth/ipod connectivity (think Mercedes is offering BT as option now) and others like camera/display screens where they are behind. not sure how this happens. I'm a second gen geek and love gadgets but I love cars more so I really buy BMW's for their performance, who else could make a big 5200 LB car handle the way this one does. But they still need to work on the gadgets/foo foo if they are going to attract the female demographic (IMHO).
