They seem to put a new version in the new model year's car when those start shipping but delay the purchasing of them until they sell all the older ones. I have seen it as late as March of the following year before you can buy one. The web site supposedly allows you to buy the newer ones at a premium price.
I just received an email from them today telling me that the new 2012 navigation disc 2012 CHV/CAD/PON/SAB Navigation Disc Part No. 22820294 is in stock and ready to purchase.
"The item you requested, 22820294, 2012 CHV/CAD/PON/SAB NAVIGATION DISC is now available.
Please go to www.gmnavdisc.com or contact us at 877-628-3472 to place your order.
What is the difference between what you ordered and 20980240, which specifically says Corvette?

That is a good question because if you choose a 2012 Corvette in the disc selector it comes up with two discs at two different prices with the first one out of stock:
2011/12 Nav Disc-EU Corvette/STS 20980240 $229.00
Could this one be the European Version?

Just sent an email to GM Nav. I just picked up my 2012 GS and the dealer only installed one disk (there was only one disk in the package). I am reading that there are supposed to be 2 disks. I asked if there are 1 or 2, if there are any upgrades and if so how many and for how long) Also asked what they think the current version is. When I went to the dealer to day they said that next year updates will be made through the GPS and there will be no more disks used which I assume means there will be a hard drive or memory device of some sort. That would be a step in the right direction.

The latest 2012 version 8.0 map update is now on just one DVD DL disc and covers both East and West areas. Some of the prior versions like 2011 version 7 were on two discs, one for East and one for West area.
I have the latest and it is indeed on just one disc so you have the complete map.

The 2012 navigation manual says that there are 2 disks, who am I to argue?
Just checked the website and it appears the new 22820294 disc is $50 off from 12-12-2011 to 12-22-2011...
