iPhone 4 Adapter/Iphone 5

Im curious to know. I want to buy the iPhone 4 cradle, because I like the idea of not using the cord, and the car antenna will enhance the reception, plus video playback. My main question is. Will BMW come up with a cradle for the upcoming iPhone 5 in a timely fashion, with the rumor of a smaller 19 pin connector

It's possible. I wouldn't wait around for it though.

Depending on the software being compatible or not... Maybe a simple cable is not enough.

Put IOS 6 on your iPhone 4S and it will be as good as a iPhone 5, the base connector on the iPhone 5 is suppose to change but it will still run IOS 6.

I have a iphone 4S running IOS 6 and can get emails & messages on ny Idrive, the iDrive even reads the emails & messages out.

As said it will take 6 months before BMW release a new cradle for the iPhone 5, whether you have a iphone 4S or iPhone 5 will make no difference as IOS 6 works with the BMW iDrive.

I just have an iPhone 4...not a 4S. So I have been looking forward to the release of a new iphone because I've been itching for an upgrade... lol

Oh well...I guess I wait on the cradle...unless I can sell the iphone 4 cradle ? maybe along with selling the phone also..when the time comes.

The cradle works with the iPhone 4S, someone will always want to buy it from you.
