But does the new GPS have a better interface with the BMW wheel, such as access to the normal menus on the Navigator because the previous version is severely restricted?
Err slight technical hitch. Say I take a photo with my iPhone - how do I get it onto the site? Sorry but newish here and not familiar with technology!
But can you access the normal menu via the wheel or just the stupid one that BMW restricted on the previous model??????
I didn't have the previous model so don't know how restricted it was.
As you can see above Ebbo was kind enough to come to my help with the posting of the original pictures and I have also since downloaded the Tapatalk app. I will therefore do my best to take a series of screenshots for you about what is available on the mejnu and try to post them on here one way or the other!
Did it survive bouncing down the road, how durable is it?

Christ it's enormous. It looks like a tablet/ipad thingy.
Got mine today. It fits in the cradle just fine, and once locked properly (just give it a wiggle to be sure), it ain't going anywhere.
You can customise the main info screen with all the bike stats on the LC, just roll the wheel down, and it gives you four or five more customisable screens. I've set one to have just a MASSIVE speedo for those speed camera zones but on one of the others, I have speed, miles to empty, trip 1 and trip a.
I've yet to play around with it properly, but initial impressions are very good.
The only annoying thing is, every time I turn it on I get the EULA, which I have to accept every time, and the message "cannot unlock maps", even though I've hooked it up to the computer (any ideas, anyone?). Why can't you just plug these units into the computer, and it automatically downloads the updates and lifetime maps? There was no card in the box with a code for the lifetime maps, so I'm not sure how I go about getting these. Again, if anyone knows how to do this, please let me know.
Does anyone know if it will display OS mapping or custom maps? After all, what's the use a monster screen if there's not much to look at... If you see what I mean.
I'd be quite surprised if it did custom maps now seeing it's just a face lift 660, still you never knowDoes anyone know if it will display OS mapping or custom maps? After all, what's the use a monster screen if there's not much to look at... If you see what I mean.
