CLS63 and CLS350 Comand Interface Differences?
Hi, I was comparing the new CLS63 to the CLS350 and noticed that the Comand user interface is a bit different, where the CLS350 seems to have a newer version that shows the MP3 cover image, you can search for songs via artist, title, etc., Tel has options for viewing SMS, etc.
Does anyone know if the CLS350 had an upgrade with the Comand software and I could get the same software upgrade on the CLS63?

Interesting.........I don't think my Command has those functions either.....mine is a 2012 CLS63. Has there been version upgrade in the same model year?

Whats cool is even if you are not on the phone screen (lets say you are on the audio screen) and someone texts you; you will hear a very faint beep and you can see the envelope icon in the top bar.

Yeah, I definitely don't see the SMS info anywhere under the "Phone" menu.
Also, when I had my X5M, it would display album covers from my Ipod. On my CLS, it doesn't do it at all!

You might need an update- my car was built in Aug 2011.

Command 2012
I also own a CLS 63(2012). The MB has to offer the newest Command after June 2011. All CLS 350 comes with COMMAND ONLINE (internet) and CD/MP3 COVER ART
I've complained to MB Brazil but nothing has been done so far. I feel deceived by MB
