Anybody going to update their Navi DVD? The new version just came out. If my neighborhood was updated, I'd probably get it. But since it's not, I think I'll probably update every two or three years. The $185 cost is kinda steep!

The $185 cost is kinda steep! I'm not going to get it because looking at the updates nothing has been changed in my area or any area I drive to. I would think the updates should be free. Wishful thinking I suppose.

I'll change when the I-95,I-295 and 9A connections are completed and reflected in the database. Hopefully then my in-laws street will be in the system too. It is kind of a pain to have a navigation system that doesn't include some of the routes that I routinely need. It is not that I don't know how to get there, but sometimes I may be in another part of town and don't know the best route to get there. With the bridges and highway layout in Jacksonville it can help.

Last year I called Honda and asked if I purchased a new updated DVD if I could sell my old version on eBay - I was told it was ok to do this. So - I wonder if anyone would consider doing this to defray the cost of upgrading to the newest version. I am thinking of it but not sure what I could get for the version I have with I think is 3.30f (or something) - has anyone done this? Also is it legal to burn a backup of your DVD in the event something happens to the original? Thanks! DonnaB

I've considered it. I wouldn't need the old version anymore. I'm surprised the manufacturer doesn't have a problem with selling your version to someone else!

As far as I've learned, if you backup something you already own, it's okay. But, as soon as you sell your original, copyright laws say you have to destroy your backup.
