Center Console

Can someone post a photo of the interior of their center console or direct me to a photo? How much space is in there?

Does the cradle work with Samsung phones or only iphones? Do you have to buy a specific adapter for your phone? I was told by a salesperson that the one complaint he hears is that you have to remove your phone from it's case each time you want to use the cradle. Is that true?

You buy sepparate adapters based on what phone you have. They aren't cheap either.

You will have to take your case off in almost all cases yes.

It appears that you have the Technology Package. On an m235i, the Technology Package gives you "Enhanced USB and Bluetooth plus Smartphone Integration". Do you happen to know what that specifically includes beyond what you would get without the Technology Package?

my friend has the 235 without the tech pack and he get the small screen and you can view the álbum cover for the music and everything is pretty standard, he got the enhaced USB and bluetooth smartphone integration thought, i would recomend you get the tech pack, is way better, and yes you get the"Enhanced USB and Bluetooth plus Smartphone Integration"at least here in Chile, it totally worth the extra buck, i got the tech pack and here it was 4 k more, i guess in USA is way cheaper, one of the things i like the most are the bmw apps, and as for the snap inn, you have to take the phone from the case everytime and is a pain in the ..., that`s why i don`t use it anymore.
here is the code for the smartphone connectivity.

Hatch in front of the cupholders.

Another question for those who already have their 2s: What is that little hatch in front of the cupholders good for? Will sunglasses fit in there?

I think it's an ashtray by design.

No chance for glasses there. It is < 1/2" deep. I am fitting my iPhone 4 in case & with std apple cable, big sun glasses and wallet in the center console with no problem. Not much room for anything else though.

Yeah that little cubby in front of the cup holders is useless. There is a nice place for sunglasses under the headlight switch though.

It's good for change, keys, etc. and that's about it. Downside is change and stuff slides around when you turn and makes noise.

Do you have the driver assist package? I don't think I have said cubby.

Good point. Don't want any change noise. So basically it's a tiny ashtray.

I now use the phone cradle for my IPOD instead of an iPhone. Switched back to my Galaxy phone this weekend. Since the IPOD has wifi I just leave my phone on wifi hotspot and my IPOD connects to it. I can then use the BMW Apps just as I did on my iPhone.
