Hi Mochisushi:

___I run the 05 Accord EX-L w/ NAVI (see sig) and if it were not for the TC w/ FCD, it would be an overly expensive NAVI unit. I really like it a lot too as it is built in and has Voice recognition but in our 03 MDX, I did not order her w/ NAVI. I did order it with the OEM RES which the family has enjoyed over and above what a NAVI can provide on the entertainment side of the equation For NAVI in that vehicle, I am using a Compaq iPAQ w/ a serial based GPS receiver and Mapopolis which has more features and options then the NAVI in the Pilot, Ody, Accord, Civic, RL, MDX, TL … although it lacks voice recognition (it does have voice direction). You can purchase the Real Time Traffic option for Mapopolis for a lesser monthly fee if you are setup for it as well … At $1,800 + MSRP for the Accord’s NAVI, it was not really worth it other then for the TC and especially the FCD imho

___Good Luck
