Another gadget freak who likes his toys, so Prof Nav for me.
Haven't used the iDrive before, but i think the consensus is most complain about it out of habit, rather than it being truly bad. Jumped into a mates X5, and managed to fly around the menus / nav screens without too much difficulty. Don't really understand what the fuss is about.
On balance, it's challenging to get a single interface device to control as much as the knob does. Think of a mouse and your computer. That's what it's trying to do with a much more limited interface. Not ideal, but not that bad either.
