Pioneer Website updated ... 2008 MAPS ... $120 ....
Nice. If I still had my D3 I'd probably buy it for that price. Then of course rip the images and seed them as torrents... ![]()
Map data only it says, of course.
So much for the SW update dreams..

I think we've discussed it before... the wording is a bit vague.
Upgrade for the DVD Touch Panel Navigation Systems (AVIC-N4, AVIC-D3)
Also compatible with (AVIC-N3, AVIC-N2, AVIC-D2, AVIC-N1, AVIC-D1, AVIC-88D, AVIC-80D, AVIC-90D, and AVIC-9DVD)
Map data update only.
Could mean firmware upgrade and map update for the N4 and D3, and map data update only for those other listed units. Or it could be just map data for all of them.
They didn't mention any other firmware updates on CNDV-70MTP either, but I think the lane guidance feature was new. I sure don't remember it being in CNDV-60MP.
I would like to see a speed limit indicator, QWERTY option, and POI sort by distance.
ok what will be on the CNDV-80MTP disk coming this mouth? ( august

Go to the link in the first post of this topic. The only things anyone here knows is what's on that page, which is little to nothing. Maybe you should call Pioneer and ask them what exactly is being included on them... and pray you actually get an answer.
I was searching for the new updates and accidentally clicked on the UK pioneer site and according to their site it is a map upgrade as well as updates. Not sure if it will be the same for the us..

Update/upgrade/map/whatever disk in June, then July, now August...lol. Confusing wording...par for the Pioneer course! And now over two years since the POI data from TeleAtlas was put together for the original disk version...entire TOWNS have been constructed near my home since pioneer last bothered to update these things
hahahahaha
And the page you linked to with the price isn't even accessible when you click on "upgrade disks" from the main navigation page...not even sure how you found it.
Who was it that offered to bet me $1000 they'd ever release an update? We'll see....

Go to the link in the first post. Click the notify me link, and they will email you when the disk is going to be available when they decide to actually give out that information.

Well I called Pioneer and they said that the discs were map only. I asked them about the different groups splitting up the D3/N4 with the rest of the systems, and she said that was because the other group are discontinued systems.
They wanted to say, here is the map update that is available for these current products, but if you have one of the older models, you can update your map as well.
I still want to see the update with my own eyes to judge if they added anything in features, but we shall see

Let me know when you have it up. I'd be interested to get it.

Very interested aswell.
HAHAHAH!
Look again! Somebody in here says it now says "September" for supposed map updates!
Hahahahahaha.....hehehehehe....hahahaha!!!!
I'm laughing my ass off....Pioneer is SO HORRIBLE at product support, it's gotten way past the stage of comical. Now it's just absolutely pathetic!
About four months ago, I offered to bet somebody on this site that Pioneer will NEVER release AVIC-D3 map updates -- much less actual upgrades to correct all the silly, ridiculous software bugs and shoddy programming.
It's now four months or more since somebody offered to take me up on the bet for $1000. Let's call it $100/mo. You now owe me $400...and counting.
Anyone taking bets on when they'll change it to "coming in October" ? I say it changes to that on 30 Sep 08!
LOL
In the meantime, entire new COUNTIES full of towns have been built that aren't on the Pioneer map disks for the D3....disks made over 18 months ago with data that was probably older than that.
Even sadder is the fact that Pioneer refuses to admit the D3 has all the problems it had.
When I had my D3, I remember sitting in my car thinking things like:
"Are you kidding me??? They couldn't scroll full song titles in XM??? They couldn't make the voice dialing commands from my Bluetooth phone actually be AUDIBLE so I can hear my phone asking if it heard me right??? Is this a prototype product? WTF????"
Even funnier are all the secret Pioneer "plants" and Audio salespeople who constantly offer apologies and excuses for Pioneer in these Forums....
LOL!
ah!!!!!!!
WTF pioneer!!!??
Coming in September!
Notify me when it (CNDV-80MTP) is available.
Well I'm on the notify list now. Whoop de do. We'll just see if they ever come out.
You know what's funny...even when your map update comes out (likely to be two years since the original versions), they're probably going to have such old data and POI info that they're useless anyway!
Seriously....if Pioneer has made these things already, then they're at least five months old (that's when the photos of the supposed disks appeared on Pioneer's website, right?).
Tom Tom has already released something like a billion map data and POI updates in the time since Pioneer posted supposed photos of the "new" disks...LOL.
What a pathetically useless company Pioneer is. I think they use the US for alpha testing of their ideas, then fix them and sell them in Europe or Japan! hahaha
Upgrade for the D3 with the CNDV-80MT disk
For customers using AVIC-D3, AVIC-X3
By upgrading the navigation system with this
disc, following points are renewed.
– The map database
– Background images(AVIC-D3 only)
The other operations are essentially the same as
those at the time you purchased the hardware.
Use the Operation Manual included in the hardware
package as your primary reference.

Data for the Map Database

to May 2007. Changes to streets/roads made
after that time may not be reflected in this

As far as everyone thats complaining/bashing on Pioneer. I got the D3 after reading and researching on the net. I'm happy with it. Sure it could be better but... It could also be much worse. I'm glad they added the ipod support even if its not perfect. It works!!! Yes the text scrolling is crappy but really who gives a %$@%. Would I like it to be better? Sure. Am I going to sit around and whine about it? No. Should you? If you want better voice support then uh... buy a unit with better voice support. It's not Pioneer's fault you can't afford it LOL. Be glad they added the data/voice over BT at all for under $1000
