So I have a restaurant (lets call it Rooneys) in my Nav locations and want to just say "phone" and "Rooneys" but dont want to enter Rooneys into the phonebook.. Can this wonderful car do it or do I have to enter Rooneys into my phone book?
 
thanks

NavData - new version? by cdreier

I'm about ready to purchase a G35 Journey with Nav. Does anyone know if there's been a new version of the software released - should I be concerned that I have the latest data, are all G35's being delivered with the most-recent data? Thanks.

Zenrin claims that the latest map updates are due out in May.

As far as changing the command sets / voice commands / etc. Nobody's mentioned a new version of that software afaik.
 
If I were buying an 08 right now I'd make the dealer include the first map update (as I did when I bought my 07 in November of 07).

On a side note, my friends 08 recognizes some newer CDs that my 07 doesn't know... which causes me to use the MusicBox software to update the info online.
 
I'm wondering if the navi update would include a Gracenote DB update as well, or if Infiniti has anything in the works for the Gracenote DB at all.

Now that's a good question! Wish I had an answer... Maybe it's time to call ICA again...

Infiniti Nav System by askalan

I'm coming off a G35x 39 month lease that had a Nav system. It was a love/hate relationship from the start. It was DVD based, updated twice, and the never ending frustration of the lockouts has me questioning whether to go into another Infinit lease. I'm looking at the EX. Is the NAV system, with it's lockouts, still as frustrating as ever? Has anyone heard if Infiniti will unlock their NAV system for use while driving? Thanks, Alan

No Gracenote update as far as I can tell (had my nav update done last week). The same CDs that didn't identify before still don't identify.
 
NAV update is maps only which is both good and bad.
 
Good - didn't strip all the extra voice commands out of my 07 compared to what the 08 has
 
Bad - didn't update gracenotes and there are roads in a major city (dallas) that have existed for at least 5 years that still aren't on the maps.

Nissan North America (aka Infiniti) still has lockouts while moving on all their NAV systems. That said, you can search for a company called KP Technologies that will help with NAV menu lockouts. They do NOT do video bypasses.

Wow, I'm glad I started poking around here. I was close to springing for an '08 G35x lease, and this is the first I'm hearing about Nav lockouts!
 
Can you please list some of the specific things you can't do while moving?
 
This is an idiotic choice by Infinit. Thanks in advance.
