That seems about right. I thought I read there may be issues charging on later production cars with the USB and as a result BMW released a power/usb adapter that goes inline with the Y cable. The link to the sharkfin antenna may be at best marginal, since the connection is passive; the dock connector does not provide a direct external antenna connection.
