Programmable Memory Keys are touch-sensitive?

I noticed that if I just brush my finger on the memory button, it displays what is stored in that button at the top of my iDrive display.

I didn't remember seeing this in the manual, but found it in my PDF version. Neat

Yes. Very handy.

I also like how you can store more than just a radio station in the button, but map locations as well. Have not tried to see if you can store phonebook dial entries...

Yes, you can store almost any iDrive function or result. #1 is set to call home, #3 is set to check the oil level, #4 is set to show trip info, #5 is set for night view, #6 is set to navigate home. Using them to store radio stations is almost a waste because you can store your radio presets and then just click on the up and down buttons on the steering wheel. Or you can click "Radio" on the iDrive controller and default it to go to "Presets" and then just press the controller to see all your radio presets.

On the F30 there are 8 memory buttons.

I just discovered this the other day too. I made one of the presets to be the USB Hub so I can just hit #1 and it will play my iPhone. Very handy.
