What's the difference b/w Bluetooth & USB/IPOD adaptor and Comfort BT and USB/Ipod

On my 2008 Clubman due for delivery in late February, I ordered the Bluetooth USB/Ipod adapter rather than the Comfort Bluetooth USB/Ipod.... what is the difference except for the price - the first is $500, the latter is $1000.

I also have the navigation system... will I be able to see the Ipod tracks on the nav screen and control the IPOD with my MFSW?

Thanks for your responses.

Hi
I can't help with the first part of your query as in the UK the options are different so I'm not sure what the 'comfort' option is.
However I have a UK 08 Cooper D with sat nav, bluetooth and ipod connection. I had to buy a BMW/MINI ipod lead from the dealer to be able to use the ipod connection (£40) and yes the tracks do all show on the nav screen by name and sorted by artist/playlist etc just as on the ipod itself. You can select tracks by using the MINI joystick or by using the MFSW but the voice control system doesn't work with the ipod - you can say 'audio aux' to start playing from the ipod but it doesn't recognise 'next track' etc like it does with the CD player.
Hope this helps, I'm sure you 'll love it. I do, it's even worth the extra £40 for the lead !
