Upgrade went fine and showing 4-1/91.

No noticeable changes but the real improvements are needed under the hood, in the routing and dynamic routing algorithms.

So fingers crossed the benefits will become apparent on a long congested drive.

Thanks to appy!

Hmmm, okay it is not a "beta". Wonder what happened to V29? Well, at least we get the latest and greatest!!

It seems to me that the announcement in meters up to the next road became more exact.
Anyhow it is V29.1. This is indicated also with the update process.

I burned it w/ Alcohol 120 and loaded it on both my 05 X5 4.8is and 03.5 M3 without any issues. Not sure of any difference though. I guess we'll have to wait for the official statement from BMW.

Worked fine for me, user error I'm afraid.

I can't notice any difference either yet.

I noticed a more aggressive routing algorithm. My NAV ALWAYS took me around my town and with the same settings it actually took me the shortest route thru town.

After burning V29 I inserted it in the car DVD player. The computer would not recognise the disk. I had trouble ejecting the CD & when I eventually ejected it I had lost my previous V28 OS. I could not re-load V28 so tried V27.1 - neither would load.....

I burned the V29 disk using UltraISO so I'm now going to burn with Alcohol 120% & see what happens

Currently I have a non-working SatNav!!

Have you tried disconnecting the battery/pulling fuses.
