I-Drive Questions?

Some questions about I-Drive in the 135i...

1. How does the unit open/close? I looked at one with the car off and did not see any open/close buttons. Is the I-drive always open when the car is on?

2. Does the screen have 1 primary display or can it do a secondary screen such as entertainment for the main portion and a map on the secondary?

3. Can you post pictures of the I-Drive in action on the 1 series?

the iDrive generally opens when you start the car and shuts when you stop the engine. you can close it yourself by either using a voice command or selecting the option within the idrive menus. you can also customize the screen to open on certain events (e.g. phone call, change in nav directions). If the screen is closed you just have to press the menu button or click the wheel to open it.

can't do 2 at the same time. if you are in nav it will put the radio station on the bottom of the screen as a status indicator ... but it really only shows one function at a time (other than the status bar of course)

if you search a guy from australia posted photos of just about every screen of his 1er idrive.
