Replying to: jimblock (Oct 23, 2004 1:16 pm) I have a 2000 Odyssey and an 2004 Acura TSX, both with the NAV systems. The Odyssey is over 5 years old, and the Nav system works fine. Thanks for the feedback -- that's what I was looking for. Would also be interested in feedback from others. -jaylard

Is anybody aware of a knowledge base anywhere out there to "fix" some of the annoying things on the NAV? How about these ideas: 1. Is there anyway to program around the "OK" screen when you start up? 2. Is there anyway to make a movie DVD play on the ront screen? 3. Is there anway to get the NAV to do anything cool that is not commonly known? 4. Is there anway to play a dvd in the rear and listen to XM radio in the front? (Book says no) |

To Answer your questions: 1)I believe there isn't because of the "Safety warning" issued on the screen. 2)No 2005 NAV system's will play DVD's in the front screen for one simple reason: safety, that's what car makers believe 3)"Cool Like What" give examples 4)Yes, shut off back speaker, make back passengers use head phones, and turn XM in front! To answer other question's I've seen: yes, you can play a DVD and still use the Navigation system..... hope your questions are resolved.

I have a recurring problem. Sometimes after startup, with the NAV on, I hit the "AUDIO" button to switch to that screen. It beeps but the screen doesn't switch. I just keeps a version of the navigation map. The only way to fix it is to shut down the car to reboot the system. Any idea what that is? I'm not sure, but it seems to be related to hitting the audio button soon after the "OK" screen. (but not always)

Does anybody have problems saving addresses in the Address book in the NAV?

Listening to the computer voice giving the directions is SOOOOOOO much more soothing than your significant other screaming that you just missed your exit. 3. It's a really neat way to hide your CD-changer! 2. No one can ever actually fold up a map once it is opened. Why invite the headache? And the number 1 reason is..... 1. IT LOOKS REALLY COOL!!!!!!

Replying to: rorr (Jan 28, 2005 1:46 pm) I think it is hard to make a solid case for NAV unless you tend to travel a lot to places you haven't been. We have found it useful when heading to a museum somewhere and we are not sure exactly where it is, but then, we could have looked it up on the Internet. A couple times we used it to select a nearby restaurant in which to eat (has those Zagat reviews). I suppose there are better uses, but we have not yet taken it on vacation or a trip. The back-up camera rocks, though, and it appears on the NAVI screen.
