I've seen bimmerretrofit retrofit a combox to a E60 and it was able to access the Internet but not BMW live. I'm not sure if it's something available to North America.

Internet and BMW Live can be made to work in North America, but you must disable BMW Assist, as the two cannot coexist, and you must change the VIN in the Combox to one with factory options 614 & 615.
