Maybe. Will wait and see. The other down side is they use the main screen. I prefer to have my audio information showing. Also, having the screen set low and in the centre isn't very ergonomic (or as safe) compared with it mounted on the dash right next to the driver's side A-pillar.

then there will be the same complaints as there were in vy/vz with the screen being too small.

Depends on what you buy. My TomTom shits all over the toyota system. No idea how the Holden system will run. I'm pretty sure all the Oz systems use Sensis data for the maps. The main differences are in the software.

I agree with Reaper - the TomTom's are the best available... ACT Emergency Services are being issued with them!

I have seen posts on other forums which indicate that cars with Sat Nav installed started being delivered this week. So it must now be available.

I have ordered mine when I purchased my car. It was meant to be installed into my SS-V this week.

I was told by the dealer that from the 1st of December they where going to be installed in the new cars being built.

We will have to wait and see.

I will let you know when I get it!!!

Merry Christmas everyone. Let's hope Santa brings me the Sat Nav before our driving holiday next week!!! Don't like my chances though.
