Here here... I agree as well. The screen looks gorgeous, but that pile of buttons surrounding the new iDrive puck looks ridiculous. The whole concept of iDrive was to reduce the number of buttons and switches required to activate and control systems in the car. This new implementation of the iDrive controller is (IMHO) a step back, while the menu system and display is a huge leap forward.
