I'm confused about what adding NAV to 1SB does.....
1SB on the chevy web site states that it comes with MP3 Playback.
But several people on the General board seem to not have MP3 playback with their NAV head unit.
Can anyone here confirm that a car with 1SB/NAV/XM does or does not accept MP3s. (I assume by a data disc?).
Thanks,
Des

We all paid an additional $1600 for NAV on top of the 1SB option with NO mp3 & 6 disc.... pretty crazy.

Using that logic, $1,740 of the 1SB package for the C6, is the 6 CD Changer and putting the NAV is + $1,600 more - so that NAV system in a 1SB/C6 is costing $3,340. Understand that the Bose Speaker upgrade in the 1SB is a big part of the upcharge on the stereo - but STILL. You can do a much better job YOURSELF with aftermarket parts, but alas, there's no RADIO DELETE for a 1SB - so get a 1SX or pay for the radio - AND the hassle of ripping all of it and the blose crap out when you get tired of the changer jamming and the head unit getting swapped out.

The radio situation is definitely frustrating. I wound up ordering the 1SB without nav because in the end, my main priority is getting a quality iPod interface, and it's only available for the non-nav systems.
