Mike734: I think you are right on the money on buying factory-installed vs aftermarket. -Would you mind listing some of the makes and models that merit consideration and do any of them come with wireless headphones. -Some of these portables sling around the front seats and I am worried that they may deactivate the side airbags. -BTW, how does one tell if you have the latest patches for the NAV? TIA |

It's kind of hard to tell because the "bugs" were few. Examples include: 1) Some destinations being on the wrong side of the road 2) Could not save addresses in the address book 3) Some screens freezing up and you have to press cancel to get out 4) Could not access previous address sometimes They said the patch disc would be available at the end of January or Februay. I got mine in February so I don't know if your January Ody had the patch disc yet. But I guess if you don't encounter any of those "bugs", then it's okay. |

So are I haven't come across any of the bugs, but I am going to try to save addresses into the address book because I haven't had an occassion to try that feature out yet. Thanks for sharing the info. |

My 2001 came with 2.02c version. I got the notice from Honda the other day, and decided to buy it. Recently I visited Lake Tahoe, and found some changes near 267 and I-80. Last year, many vehicles follow my Odyssey to I-80 on the new road because I could see I-80 from my NAVI (they couldn't know where it leads to). That was a great moment to have a GPS. Anyhow, the installation was a piece of cake, and it works fine. The new POI and many new detailed "un-verified routes" are great. I would say the $190 or so spent was well worth the money. Personally, I would only upgrade when I see the need. That depends on your zoaming area of course. |

Correction: 2001 Ody came with 2.03 version. Had a chance to use NAVI today. Wow, the 2.11c has a different voice! It is a lower-pitch, more native English voice rather than the original voice which sounds like English spoken by a Japanese lady. Non-offense to the latter. My family enjoy the new voice. It is attractive. One cons, though. The system seems a bit slower, but not too much. |

I just received the new 2.11c navi disc. After installation I am unable to access my Personnel data base. The pin number has changed. Does anyone remember the default? Is there a fix? HELP!

Replying to: mike734 (Jun 07, 2004 4:36 pm) My personal data did not change when I installed the new disc. I think everyone has a different PIN. There are two users on the address book, and you have to select the correct one.

I am looking at a 2004 EX-L with Navigation. Is it worth having? I had a sales rep tell me it wasn't a very good system. I plan to put in an after market RES because I want a bigger screen, so that's why I'd prefer the Navi. I am curious if the 04 CD is improved over some of the comments I have been reading. Thanks- PNC
