Album Art? I guess so but I'm not sure. My car doesn't have the 6NF option (I use an iPod instead). That's why I ordered the Basic adapter. There are in fact 3 different adapters: Snap-In-Adapter Apple iPhone™ 4 Basic für Fahrzeuge mit SA 633 oder SA 644 Snap-In-Adapter Apple iPhone™ 4 Music für Fahrzeuge mit SA 633 oder SA 644 und SA 6FL und SA 6NF Snap-In-Adapter Apple iPhone™ 4 Media für Fahrzeuge mit SA 633 o. 644 und SA6FL und SA 6NF und SA 6VC

Is this the official part that is made by Peiker (mentioned in other threads)? My German isn't that good but am I right in saying that the adapter for cars with the USB interface is not yet available?

And yes, the adapter that streams music and video over bluetooth is not yet available.

Unfortunately, for iPhone, it is not possible. If you look at the pin out of the iPhone connection, there is simply no antenna connection. |

The ideal solution is to keep an ipod permanently plugged in and connect the cell with bluetooth. |

Maybe some benefit.
Appears that the upcoming 6NR option, which may be a software update to post-Combox cars, will require the 6NF option. Although I agree it's benefit without this requirement is a stretch, the deep integration between the phone and car looks promising and if this $150 option is needed, it may be worth the gamble.

According to the specs and several sites and forums the iphone gets connected to the antenna with the snap-in ! "Looking at the pin- out" is not a strong argument to me ! Is there anyone that can clear this out ? |

Option 6NR also has very little benefit. So far the only published features are − Access to social networks Facebook and Twitter in the vehicle. − Stream web radio stations into the vehicle. − Operation of music playback with the Apple iPhone user interface on the vehicle Control Display. The first 2 features are useless. Who wants to twitter and make facebook posts while driving? Do we really need web radio? The car already has the option of sirius, mp3, hd radio, cd, streaming pandora. Apple user interface sounds cool but the current system works just fine. |

What about charging the phone? If the iPhone is running Bluetooth, the battery drains quickly.

Yeah, you're right. It's just, I have a 160 GB iPod permanently connected to the USB.

So both are right. It does not use the connector, but it works! Like the previous adapters for iPhone. |

Since I have a dedicated iPod on my USB connection, the snapin is also interesting to charge my iPhone. Another good thing is that I'm easily tempted to do stuff on the iPhone while driving ... maybe when it's in the armwrest I won't do this dangerous thing anymore ... :-) ... and when I forget my phone, no one will notice it ... |

There is a huge price difference and i would really like to know what features are available on those. For instance, in the high end 'media' adapter will you be able to play movies on your idrive screen ? So far i haven't found any complete information in the BMW website or any other site. Any help appreciated, Regards, Elie |

I purchased the IPhone 4 cradle. Parts Manager said there are 3 different cradles for the iPhone 4. I purchased the basic one which only charges the phone and is supposed to work with the external antenna.
I am not impressed so far. Cell signal seems the same. As others have said, just connect an iPod to the USB port in center console and use the Bluetooth connection for the phone. Not worth the the money. Also, Apple will probably release a new iPhone shortly that will make the current cradle obsolete. |
