I just looked at the BMW website and the Portable is now 5 inch with HD traffic. That is a newer model than the 760 they originally used. Not sure which one. The portable is not voice controlled. The portable plus, which is voice controlled, is 4.3inch and doesn't mention HD traffic. So it could be an old model like I use. Both have Bluetooth (which I use, works fine) for phone but not for music (at least the old ones don't). Looks like they use a plastic mount in the center of the dash now. Mine had a metal bracket that installs under the hood for the speedometer.

I would ask to see what your dealer has. He could have an older model, even if BMW markets newer ones. The Garmins are just rebadged with BMW specific icons and a BMW splash screen. So you can buy map updates from Garmin for them.

I'm gonna get a phone call on Friday when it comes in, so I'll definitely keep this post updated with what they are carrying now.
