I think they should remove the Compact Flash drive. Who the heck uses that? And it's an ugly piece of plastic on the lower stack.

I used it on my recent 3,500 miles trip. I do not have an iPod and not a subscriber of XM. The CF drive gave me the option of music for the entire trip. Not a lot of features but it was OK.
 
NAV upgrade ?

I was at my dealer today (for a car wash) and I asked the sales person that exact question: Would the '09 Nav be upgradable to the new versions with weather, updated graphics, etc. He doesn't know yet, but expects the answer to be 'Yes' since it is a software based system.

More to come...

I hope this is right. I have a feeling it isn't from what I heard elsewhere from a sales rep.

But I think he thought I meant the musicbox upgrade and Bluetooth imput upgrade. I didn't.

I just meant the graphics, weather and zagat stuff.
