But, yeah, iDrive is the best. I have tried both Comman and MMI and BMW's system is the best. I have problems with connecting my phone, though, but I think it's because of cyanogenmod.
The features of locking your car with your phone or track it via GPS always give me a good feeling when leaving my car. There were numerous moments in life were I had to get back to my car and see if it is locked (don't let my girlfriend tell you a story about this...). So yeah, as much as it is considered as pure nonsense by some of our hardcore "enthusiasts", I am sometimes thankful to just lock my car with a phone as I don't have to walk back and check. Other than that, RTTI is simply stunning and works close to perfection. It always shows the right arrival time, sometimes if there are even 400 km to cover.
