Don't worry, bad pictures. The quality will be up to standard.

They didn't miss anything. Not all products on the planet are supposed to be like an iPod with nothing but a knob or a button on it. Some people like basic and frequently used functions to be easily accessible by just pressing a button, rather than having to dig through menus and sub menus distracting you from what's ahead on the road.

The columns and rays of buttons on the left side of the knob are obviously numbers for making a phone call. I'm surprised that they have kept them but I guess they carried out a market research and found out that their customers like it that way.

Further more iDrive isn't much of an inspiration after all the negativity we have heard and read about it.
