Living with Connected or Connected/Nav

Curious as to how those who've taken delivery have found using their Connected or Connected/Nav systems to be in day-to-day driving?

Have the systems lived up to your expectations? Have you been pleased, overall, with what they do? With ease of use? Or have they turned to be simply over-hyped gadgets that, in your mind, have proven to be a waste of money?

Would love to hear of folks' experiences.

Thanks!

Love the system. Easy to use and is the coolest feature of the MINI interior.
I got it with out Nav and think it was a bargin. Very glad I ordered it.

Thanks for the reply. What exactly do you find so compelling? What do you use it for?

Thanks - I had seen that thread, but it seems that it contains an awful lot of speculating (does it, can it, how do I), as opposed to real-world user experiences, unless I missed some posts.

Try reading from the beginning. Plenty of first hand observations. Yes it has gone sideways at times but no sense duplicating the topic and spreading valuable feedback over multiple threads. Just my opinion... Was hoping to have one thread focused on the complexities of those systems as they are indeed complex, particularly when combined with available voice commands and Bluetooth features. Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to keep focus.
