I'm shocked noone's mentioned this. In the arm rest storage area is an airconditioned cupholder. I asked the dealer "hey what does this little switch in here do?" And he said it opens the vent. So I stuck my hand down there and it was cold! Silly Germans

But not a BMW invention. I drove a Opel Omega (german GM brand) in 1989 that had a dual section glove compartment. In one compartment you could open a vent from the Aircon to keep your drink cold and your chocolat from melting. I´ve seen similar on several GM cars since then.
So BMW is just catching up in the cupholder department...
