Haven't seen any clear reviews of the traffic tuner... I thought the MSN was pretty useless, didn't update the traffic too often, and generally gave inconsistent results...
Anyone play with the new tuner???

Bump - has anyone actually installed the traffic tuner???
I installed it and I do not receive any data yet. I am troubleshooting if it is an installation or signal issue in my area. I had it installed at an installer but I believe it has not been installed correctly as anytime I click on traffic providers it gives no providers available
I hope the installer plugged the antenna (FM) into the traffic tuner and then daisy chained it back to the HU. If he just ran the car's antenna lead to the HU, then that's your problem.
Interestingly, we bought a Z130 (I already have a Z110 - upgraded to Z130), and bought a traffic tuner for the Z130 - as it turns out, the Z130 comes with the tuner - so now I have an extra (to put in my car
)...
I installed my tuner yesterday and it's working fine for me. When i tested it on the way in to work tonight, I realized it was picking up a traffic station out of Denver instead of Colorado Springs and wasn't providing me with traffic data for my area. Everything was 40-60 miles north of my location.
Works great for me so far. Installed it into my Z110 upgraded to 130. I live in DFW so i guess it does its job.
So now that there are files available to get my z110bt to the z130bt software, it seems that getting traffic available is possible.
What hardware do we need, are their different versions ?

Works great in Los Angeles, CA. I installed mine Thursday night and used it on my way to and from work on friday. I had an Avic-D3 with XM Navtraffic before. This seems almost the same to me. Though I haven't really dug into the navigation yet. I haven't figured out how to look at the details for the incident yet. But i suspect its in there somewhere.
Also works great in NY.
