Thanks again Poochie,

I understand the iDrive system and the app better thanks to your links to video tutorials. Helpful.

So no worries, your vehicle will be CarPlay ready and now that they decided to comp it, there will be no charge for using the service.
Lucky you! I confirmed with BMW Australia and that is not how it is setup. It is early days and there seems to be some mixed messages and confusions from the HQ, dealer, media, dog next door. I'm sure time will provide the answer at some point.
