Re: GPS on a Z4

#1

That sounds like a reasonable request. My handheld GPS will refersh the
screen long before the cursor gets to the edge. Certainly a sophisticated
system like in the BMW will have this simple function.

I was wondering if there was any way to set the GPS so that they position
marker was completely stationary and only the map moved (like in the Lexus
GPS). I don't like how the screen doesn't refresh until the position
marker
gets almost to the end of the screen. I would like to always see more of
what's
ahead.

Well, until we find an answer, does anyone know if this is the same on the
other models.

Picked up my new Z4 yesterday with Sat Nav and mine always centred,
regardless if a route is set or not.
I purposely checked this out after delivery because of your message.
Maybe there is some update you need?
