updated disc by 95gt

Yeah, really is no need to update to the new disc unless the area you drive in all the time is not mapped. If that is the case i would say why did you get the nav in the first place since most major areas are mapped. Who needs a nav system out in the country where there are only 3 roads
 
But i have not updated to the new disc because my 2001 disc is still perfectly fine.

You will want a new DVD as often as they update them if you drive in a new and fast-growing area with lots of new roads and new POI updates every year.

So it pays to live in a stagnant region with zero infrastructure improvement!

Like Toronto! Question: do the folks who make the NAVI DVD remove roads as they fall into such disrepair that they are unnavicable?

Do you believe the roads in this town?! Most of the 401 between Allen Road and the DVP is just a disaster. I'm afraid I'm going crack a rim one of these days!

Not sure where you are living but i live in DC/Maryland and that area has grown a huge amount. The only new roads they put just connect 2 old roads so i am "off the digitized road for 10 seconds then back on track. If it was cheaper i would agree but in 99% of the cases the 200 bucks is kind of a waste IMO.

So, if the Navs says "off digitized road", does that mean your on your own as far as directions?

It shows where you are on the map so it is very easy just to take a quick look and realize which road you need to get on. In all honesty the amount of time i was not on the digitized road was 30 seconds or so. Most areas do not have new highways built but just extensions of existing roads to interest other existing roads.

95gt, thanks for your response regarding the Nav system.
 
Question, if I want to check my voice mail at work I have to dial the number, then enter my extension and then a code. Can this be done in the TL using bluetooth feature without pushing buttons?

I would think since the system is still using your phone you should be able to program that into your phone. Most phones have a delay you can put in when you put a number in your phone. This delay can be used to pause then enter a code after the pause. I would think that would work for your system.
 
I have no idea if you can dial more numbers once you have completed a call.
