A good way to find out those answers would be to spend some time and browser through the forums. All your questions have been answered not too long ago.
Software 0566 (you have 0409) resolves the most issues (mention poor HD radio reception and MMI freezing frequently and you should be able to get the update during your next scheduled service), even though it's not the newest one anymore. And yes, there alternatives to t-mobile and no you can't tether the car to your phone.

Plus I use the Red iPhone MMI Connecter Cable + the Apple 30-pin to Lightning adapter for my iPhone5

Just remember - if you update the MMI as discussed and your Bose front/rear/let/right balance and sound is messed up tell the dealer to re-code the Bose Amp after the MMI update. I experienced this and after re-coding the amp the sound is great as others have mentioned.

Mine sound OK, but that is a good tip to remember. Thanks!

Thank you all for your suggestation...
I stopped by Audi dealer, but according to him there is no UPDATE !!
also, it looks like my MMI screen has some problem..When i close the screen, at the end it makes some creepy noise and i could see it vibrating...
I had also discussed this issue with the service man, but since they did not had loner car, they didnt took mine..
But later on they called me and said that you have to pay $134 diagnostic fee. and that part might not be covered under warrenty.....is it real ?
please advice me.. how would i deal this issue with Dealer. i have taken an appoinment with the service manager to discuss it..
Thanks

My screen did the same thing - I did not know that there IS an issue - my service guy (who is the best ever..) noticed the screen and without me asking ordered a new screen mech / transport and put it in. the way it sounded there was an issue with it (old one...) and that a replacement fixed it. Ever since it moves like butter.
