Yes it will inform you. I have had a D1 in my work vehicle for years. With Ipod and satellite radio, I have literally used the CD slot 10-20 times. Taking the DVD in and out is a minor annowance now considering all the other features I gained
thanks for the info.Will it inform me before the 10 mile radius is about to end, or will it just show blank map?
I guess I just have to use the ipod all the time.
You can change the onscreen interface to one of five different colors. You can change the buttons to one of 32,000
yes I use a capacitor flame me!
Great pictures, am I correct in noticing that some of the icons on the display also change to match the selected illumination color?
And why would you get flamed for using a capacitor?

Honestly, you have to work to make it lose its memory. They only time i've done it on my Avic-N1 was when I was driving my buddy home and jumped off the highway with my home address still inputed, when we reached his house it stated on the screen: No map info avalible...scaling up.
But before that happens you'll prob. flip from all the times the voice tells you to jump back onto route.
Hey everyone, hows that new Tele atlas multi net database feature? When you enter an address or POI on the D3 with the new tele atlas maps lead you almost right to your destination when you enter your address? Just wondering, I saw no one talking about this. God Bless.
so i guess the unit can be bypassed after all..... sweet
The exact POI addressing is only on harddrive units like the Z1/2. That being said, I put in my friends home address and it was exactly right on. It was off by about half a block the last three versions of navi software

lol so where does the unit lead you for POI's? The general vacinity?
The Z2 has about 4,000,000 POI mapped to exact address and latitude & longitude. That helps in strip malls where all the businesses have the same address with a letter marking each individual business. Also means that it will get you there whether is is right on the street, or sunk back deep in a shopping center. Previous software used postal codes so if it was 150 First St, it would put you half way down the block of 100-200 with no idea where that address was on the street

Man thats great whtcrxghst! I hope navteq utilizes the same feature! Seems like teleatlas is doing pretty good. God Bless.
It seems many people are misinformed on DVD navi. The DVD is only accessed when you input an adress or search through POI's. After you chose a destination, it stores the instructions/route in its Flash based memory. You can then take out the DVD if you choose, or leave it. IF you take it out, you have about a 10 mile radius outside of the already mapped out destination before it request to place the DVD back in.
This would mean that if say you were to make a wrong turn somewhere... it would be possible for the navigation to redirect you back on track to your destination?
Thats exactly what it means. You have to go miles and miles off route before it would be unable to route you back to the original one

Correct.
