BMWApps Killer app

Ok, Pandora is nice...
But the killer app, would be voice access to Siri.

Who can we talk to, to make that happen?

Yes it might even be as good as running Vlingo on a BBerry. Everyone makes such a noise about Apple being voice responsive now... meanwhile I have been doing that with Bberry for 2 years now.

yawn.

You can run Siri via BT...

As long as your bluetooth is activated and connected, if you hold the home button, Siri is activated and you speak to it using your car's bluetooth

I heard that the BB system wasn't that great?
I have no personal experience with it, so I cannot comment on it directly

Bluetooth is better than nothing, but I'm referring to the ability to use the Nav screen as a duplicate of the iphone screen.

"show me my meetings for today"
"I'm in the mood for thai food"
etc
