Had an amazing trip with Vanessa (and the BMW 135i). Photos to come. One quick note: The BMW iDrive system is very slick and worked great. The car mags love to rag on it for a non-intuitive interface, but by the end of the first day, I had the system figured out (while driving east across central Europe). The iPod/iPhone connection is great, easy to read on the screen and very responsive. One big plus that I just discovered now when I got home and synced my iPod–playing a track on my iPod in the car advanced the play count in iTunes when I synced. Yes, I’m a big smart playlist nerd, but it’s kickass that this works so well, given my reliance on play count-linked playlists.
More to come.
The lady and I are traveling to Europe tonight for two weeks. I’ll post photos of our adventures along the way, web access allowing.
