...The TSX is getting an upgraded NAVI system for 2006. Has anyone heard if the Accord's system is getting any updates?

Just curious :D

I have the brochure for 2006, but I could not tell by looking at it if the Navi was upgraded or not.

I did compare it to the 05 brochure and there does not appear to be a change, but again, I could not be sure.

The interface has changed slightly, according to the brochures and pics on TOV.

Not sure if this will translate into anything really improved.

It probably means they caught on to people hacking the system and they're adjusting the software to make people stop. Instead of calling it a stronger NAVI OS, they're calling it an upgraded NAVI system with more POIs and different, better GUI. :D

I doubt that. Not much has really been hacked except for the startup splash screen. Nobody has really even figured out how to disable the disclaimer screen (unfortunately). I would like the ability to modify mine so the splash screen is shown during the whole bootup period and it directly goes to whichever screen was used last (map, audio, etc).

The Navi for '06 has been upgraded. Compare the screens in the brochure to those of the '05 Odyssey, and '06 Ridgeline- they are the same.

They also stated that the navi for 06 has 600 voice commands, in the brochure.

The nice thing is that you can very likely be able to Direct Swap Navigation ECU's from the '06 Accord into the '03-05 models- it is unlikely that Honda really changed the wiring harness for the navi...

I'm hoping it's simpler than that. Hopefully just swapping the DVD disc itself will get us an upgrade.
