Sat nav now standard on my model when bought new:
>>Satellite navigation is now standard equipment on several variants, including Liberty 2.5i Premium, Liberty GT, Liberty GT spec.B, Liberty 3.0R Premium, Liberty 3.0R spec.B and Outback 3.0R Premium. This represents added value worth $3000.

Note they have increased the price of their cars as well.
Despite additional specification, only minor price increases have been added to some models.

I think it is a bargain considering 500 dollor increase on GT and u get 4000 satnav.
Obviously due to new accord the price of 2.5 prem is left untouched and added satnav which is great for customers

Wish I had Sat Nav, I reckon its a worthwhile option.
From memory there were other settings beside the navigation maps.... engine rev's, temps and others. Wouldn't have minded it at all.

Just for info, pretty much every DVD player can output NTSC... It's just the movies you get here are recorded in PAL. So if you get an NTSC DVD from say the USA (Even some titles here are NTSC) then it should work

I think that's true for those that do not have the Macintosh unit. Think it's to do with the 6 unit stacker in the Mac. Then again I could be wrong. Someone correct me if I am.

The standard SatNav in other models does not have DVD playback function

sat nav is the best.
shits on the portable ones.. have used both.
and i got the sat nav in my car for that very reason.. any options like this will eventually become a standard feature. great investment for many reasons.
