mp3 menu choice in '05 comand?

hi,
manual shows illustration of comand screen with 'mp3' as choice , along with radio and cdc. i assume this represents the indash single-cd slot.
my car has 'cd' on screen, not 'mp3' . does this mean i dont have full MP3 functionality?
i have burned cd-r discs of mp3 files with a phatnoise music manager (i have that in wife's bimmer). these seem to play ok and files are mp3 format.
is there a setting in the 357 menu to address this maybe?
thanks , j.

The 357 trick does not apply to your car. The MP3 soft button will appear after you actually insert an MP3 disc. Hope that helps.

I used Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.0 to create a MP3-CD. I made a data CD with the MP3s organized in folders. It seems to work well in the E-class. The MP3 soft keys appear when the disc is inserted. Hopefully, it will work in the SL too.
