New Map Update
I bought my nav map update from Gene Culley at Fred Beans, it was $161.38 plus $9.95 shipping... 
Should arrive early next week. This is the map update, not the software update... The part # is 15779679.
Hope this helps if anyone else is looking...

My nav has worked great from the beginning. It does take a bit of learning to work with it.
I got the update simply to include newly built and/or modified roads...

I, too, would be interested in hearing what the differences are in the 2 versions and whether the update is worth it. Also, when was the update done? How out of date is it already? Keep us posted.

I say again that my system has found every other address I've asked for and guided me to the location like I've been driving there for years. I'm very pleased with the system.
I'd love to find out if the updated disk has my friend's address on it before buying the new disc. Perhaps someone with the updated disc calln check to see if Turnbull Court in Antioch, CA. shows up on their disc.

I called my friend (need-for-speed, btw) and he gave me directions over the phone to his house. When I pulled up in front of his house, suddenly the nice little nav lady announced "you have reached your destination". My wife and I said in unison - "yeah, no thanks to you, bitch!".

Thanks to the guys who have responded telling me the Antioch, CA address is on their '06 disc. That is definitely a step in the right direction since it doesn't come up at all on my version 1 disc at all.
Thanks again for the help.
