Well, if the time frame mentioned is correct (3 to 4 years) then this means that work on this model hasn't even started yet. (which obviously also means that any official statement from BMW currently "there will be no M" is also correct).
Knowing how the decision process in big companies tends to shift from one decision to the exact opposite in short time frames I currently believe that no one can really tell whether there will be an M. I think it will also depend how long the economic crisis will last, how well the 35i will sell (meaning do they see a need or a niche big enough) and and and...
So for now, speculation is all we have (no matter how close to BMW the source may be).
