Here is one on the nav system.
Don't expect the newer navs to be disc based.
Will be a hard drive or flash ram with information downloaded through the ONSTAR service.

They actually haven't decided how updates will be handled yet. It may be a reflash through TIS2 web, a DVD flash, or OnStar- they just aren't sure yet.
If everyone's that hungry for Nav info, here's a few other choice bits that will surely apply to the V as well as the regular CTS:
-Radio buffering will store up to 60 minutes of radio temporarily (meaning you can't save it). Say you're listening to a talk show and have to stop for gas. While the car is off, the HDD will continue recording the station that was on. When you start the car back up, you can hit rewind and go back the the point where you left off. When you get to a commercial on your recording, you can go "live" and catch back up, just like a TiVO or DVR.
-The 40GB HDD will also allow you to rip individual songs or entire CDs to the HDD permanently, and uses Gracenote software to organize iPod style playlists that allow you to sort by artist, song, album, genre, etc... You can rip CDs while listening to the radio, and an onscreen progress bar shows your download progress. iPod music purchased through the iTunes store can't be ripped to the HDD, but files you manually added to the iPod from your CD collection or PC can.
-USB hookups under the armrest on cars with the Uplevel nav system allow hookup of not only an iPod, but any USB device with music on it. The device is controlled by the touchscreen.
I'm happy to answer any other questions about equipment if you've got 'em. Most of the optional features should be standard on the V, just like the current generation.

Sorting through music is doable while moving. Pretty much the only thing that can't be accessed while driving is entering a Nav destination.
That will be available as soon as Lawyers become extinct. |

Why is it other cars can access the nav while moving but we can't .  Just seems a little silly. Hope there is a unlock loop hole soon after the car is released. |
