Yea it comes with a DVD. You would need to update it maybe every couple
of years. I think its more like 150 bucks, not 310.

Re: question about hondas navi
I have a 2006 Accord NAV, and I a 2005 Pilot non-Nav. I got a Garmin 360
Nuvi, and I swear it is more useful than the onboard NAV. Cost about $600
compared to the thousands to get the NAV in the accord. But I will say the
other features in the NAV electronics are nice. I love the display.

I also use the Garmin units in my cars. Have semi-permanently mounted
(w/external antenna) a 2610 in the dash bin beneath the heater/radio
console and it works fine.
I don't know that it's MORE useful than the built-in as I don't have one
to compare it to. It does, however, do everything I could want it to
and does it well.
I, too, thought the update DVD's for the built in NAV systems were in
the $300 range. Another fine deal from Garmin $75/year for their DVD
which allows you to update TWO, not one but TWO, GPS units.

Re: question about hondas navi
I have a CRV here in France that I bought new last April. The GPS is a
joke and has let me down a number of times, some of this is down to
road modifications but some is just cr*p programming/data.Files on the
DVD are all dated 2004 for a car bought in 2006. Bad News of the day
is that they want 320 Euros to replace the DVD which is the only
upgrade route !!

joke and has let me down a number of times, some of this is down to
road modifications but some is just cr*p programming/data.Files on the
DVD are all dated 2004 for a car bought in 2006. Bad News of the day
is that they want 320 Euros to replace the DVD which is the only
upgrade route !!
