| I finally found this topic, I saw mention of it somewheres but was between offices and such and lost it... in any case when I get more info on the lack of some info from the map database people I will post it here. | |
| I ordered one and I don't know anything about it's features, I have no info at all. Did I screw up? I did it to talk my wife out of another T&C. So even if it is useless, it was worth it.... | |

Jefe5, you ordered an Odyssey, or the nav system? If you're talking about the whole vehicle, well, check out its description under "new trucks" at the bottom of the page. guitarzan Community Leader/Vans Conference |

| I have ordered the vehicle and I ordered it with the nav system. I know about the vehicle, but am dieing for info on the nav system. | |
|
OK guys, fill him in with your vast knowledge! Jefe5, sometimes it is easier to start with questions. Have you thought up any specific q's that could help spurn some response? guitarzan Community Leader/Vans Conference |

I thought this would be a good topic for folks with the nav system to exchange ideas. Maybe everyone's learning as you go or (gasp!) reading the owners manual.. |
|
| Does the nav system talk? Does it say turn left at the next intersection? Does it say prepare for a left exit from the freeway? | |
| The nav system does talk. A computerized female voice tells you when to turn, right or left lane for freeway exits, distance until you reach the exit, etc.. This happens in conjunction with the display showing a "zoomed" in map of the exit you are to take with your destination highlighted in blue. We have experimented with purposely making wrong turns and the computer will attempt to direct you back to your predetermined route. We will give the nav system a real test in two weeks when we travel to Chicago. So far my wife and I love it! | |

Dhyams has compiled an excellent Honda Odyssey FAQ page at http://www.ebicom.net/~dhyams/odyssey.html The section on the NAV answers a number of general questions about the Navigation system, and you might want to read it. |
|
| I know from experience with PC-based software that roads and destinations can become outdated faster than one might think. Will there be updates available to the NAV database, and if so, will they be free? Has anybody asked about this yet? | |
