It just has to sit on the same network as the one available throughout the house.

Trip is, as always, correct. They set out to release both updates on Nov 15th, but the two-way was not released - I am a bit worried as they did not provide a new date for the two-way S/W, just a "changed deadline" remark. 

@Trip: will there be some type of hardware add-on to the BM5, a USB wifi-thing to make the two-way work, or will it require that your BM5 is hardwired into a home network router that also provides wifi?

It Doesn´t matter if it hard wired or have a wifi dongle but have of to be on same network

My dealer has jokingly told me he expects the two way software to be released about the same time as the Beo 35, long after the Beo 4-34s have become obsolete. LOL

??...... What is Beo 35 and Beo 4-34s ?

It was a joke. Hence my comment the dealer has"jokingly" said.

The long awaited 2-way enabling software for the Beo6 has just been released by B&O (version 2.11a) and it is available via a new Config Tool software version.

Enjoy this new exciting functionallity for the BS/BM5 and BS5 Encore !

Thanks! Have emailed my dealer to confirm and to order a Beo 6.
Anyone confirmed this?
I am still waiting to hear from my dealer who I emailed earlier.
As an I.

Will update if I find anything out.
