I'm wondering if you don't do the Connected XL and add navigation, do you still get traffic? It doesn't mention it in the description of the optional navigation add-on to visual boost.

Also, has anyone seen the non-XL screen in person or have pictures of it?

Connect XL is the only one with map and navigation.

Not exactly...

You can add the 'Media Package' which adds Connected (Non-XL) + Visual Boost + Center Arm Rest + Enhanced BlueTooth for $750, and then add Navigation for $750. ($1500 total)

Of course at that point you're $250 away from the Wired Package which adds Connected XL + Visual Boost + Navigation XL + Real Time Traffic + Enhanced BlueTooth + Center Arm Rest. ($1750 total)

I agree with you, mini-mine, that the wording implies doing the Navigation with the Media Package would exclude real time traffic. I'm not sure many people have that configuration though, the Media Package wasn't even added as an option until mid-April as I remember, and most of us who ordered around then are still waiting on delivery =)

Thank you! Wow I didn't realise there was only a $250 difference. Totally worth that for the big screen. Guess I never noticed as was always adding the Loaded package. The package savings can get confusing!
