Split screen in action!

Here a movie I found on youtube, it also shows voice control. Something we unfortunately can't order here in the Netherlands.

YouTube - R56 2007 MINI Cooper S Sat Nav, Voice Control, Entertainment

I think it looks good, but really not convinced by the voice control.

Far too slow to respond, and it talks back to you to confirm everything. It would drive me nuts!

I think it's really mean't as an aid for the visually impaired.

They should have the updates I picked up my R56 at the end of April and it has the split screen and really is superb (well pleased)

Good luck but I can't believe some of you guys are still waiting for updates.

split screen

Yeah, I finally got the upgrade. I had to bring my MINI to the dealer and asked them to update the software. In fact they upgrade all the software in the car and now , finally, also I have my splitscreen sat nav! Yippeeeeee.

And indeed its really so much better. For instance it now also shows the estimate arrival time!

I was also hoping they could upgrade the software op the ipod adapter, but unfortunately they cant or there was simply no update. This ipod adapter is the only thing I regret having ordered.

It plays your mp3, but thats about it.

Greetz,

Rob

I found the new software is also much quicker when using MP3's on CD.
