BMW + Google = MyInfo

BMW and Google has tied up to offer a new service called MyInfo, which will combine Google Maps in all but the BMW X3 for the 2009 fleet. Google Maps  will be the backbone of the BMW Search system, available with vehicles that come with the BMW Assist and Navigation system. BMW can only choose between AT&T and T-Mobile as the mobile provider in order to use the same mobile technology as the European models and will rely on the much slower GPRS network. MyInfo  will cost a $199 as annual subscription fee and is part of the concierge plan available in the BMW Assist.
