anyone here with an 05 w/the nav system or an older model upgraded to the 05 map disc (called "map release 3d")? Just looking for feedback on the software and if there are any real improvements to the data. also, since it's called map release 3d wondering if they've gone to 3d views and such on it. any feedback is appreciated. it's a pricey upgrade and wondering if it's worth it. thanks in advance.

I'm interested too.
My NAV hasn't been working for a while, the maps do but I can't enter a destination. Dealer has replaced the head unit and GPS a couple times, finally said my disc was scratched, but won't pay for a new one cause it only comes with a 30 day warranty. They want $300 for a new disc.
I really don't want to spend that much money on a disc but if the new one is much better I may.

How much is the 3D map upgrade? I got an '03 with the factory navi in it. What else do you get?

3D doesn't refer to "Three Dimensional". It's a version number for the Disc. Mine is version 4D which is the latest version. It's got every street and POI in my neighborhood.
