Well thats the way mercedes does telephone systems on E and lower models,the S and CL have the telephone dialer in the command controller handrest.

Having the telephone buttons in the Command is ok if there is touchscreen,otherwise it loses its simplicity.

P.S:When i said BMW fans i wasn't particularly referring to you.
