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

I updated my D3 and as far as I know the only thing that changed is the year on the startup screen (of course the streets have changed, or so they say)

jmccaughin,

Did you check the disk for any new background images? I'm wondering if they added any new gauge images or anything. It just said background images but didnt specify anything. It is pretty sad that they come out with a new disk and the enduser is left trying to find some evidence that "anything" was updated LOL. Id just like it if they added the proper menu for the HD radio and maybe tweaked a few things. Theres probably little chance they're going to update anything at all on the D3 after this next update "if it ever comes". Hopefully they will at least do the things I mentioned. They want us all to buy F's and Z's etc they arent going to go out of their way to make the D3 any better.

Pioneer wants us to buy the new f series, THIS IS JUST ABOUT MAKING MONEY.

About the Database

Data for the Map Database

• This database was developed and recorded up

to May 2007. Changes to streets/roads made

after that time may not be reflected in this

database

So this update STILL isn't released, and its from May 2007? Wow....thats all i can say is wow. Glad i sold my D3.

I have just verified that backup disc of the new software works on the D3. (west disc only)

I am willing to help out AVIC 411 members by burning this disc for them and shipping it to them there will be a small fee to cover cd costs and such.

thanks for all the help guys!

I have sent you an email

East coast available at http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18353. Also willing to send people original looking disc for a small fee

how much are you talking about for the disk

$25 plus shipping. Which would give you an almost purchased look. All of my DVD's are printed on giving them a purchased look and feel.

I have upgrade disks for the D3.

Scanned and printed directly on the DVD. Looks like the factory disks!

PM me anytime.
