2009.1 Nav disc?

Does anyone have the 2009.1 nav dvd yet for their stock nav? I've been thinking about buying the updated disc because I still have the 2007.2 version that shipped with my car last year.

I've been waiting because I live on a street in a new development that has just recently been added to the Navteq database, and I wanted to know if my street is listed on the 2009.1 disc.

If anyone has this disc and is willing to check to see if my street is on there please let me know and I'll send you a pm with my street.

If I'm going to spend 200.00 on a map update, it should at least have my home address. Here is the link to the dvd: http://www.navigation.com/is-bin/INT...llProducts=YES

Thanks.

Navteq's website lists this wrong. The 2007-09 Hatchbacks use the Professional version not the High version of the software. If you pick a 08 or 09, it correctly shows the Professional version.

Check out this thread. Some people bought an update only to find Navteq was sending them the High DVD instead of the Professional DVD.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I'm sure I would have ordered the wrong disc. If nobody here has this disc I guess I'll contact Navteq and see if they can help.

I sent Navteq an email about the error and they are looking into it. I think their confusion lies in the fact that the 2007 convertible and hatchback use a different nav system. The convertible (1st gen car) uses the High DVD while the hatchback uses the Profressional DVD.

The person who replied back to me said their manager would contact Mini and then correct their website if needed (hope they find their error!).

Navteq has still not updated their disc ordering system to correctly order the professional DVD for a 2007 hardtop.

At one point, it seems that there were problems with a 2008 update disc and MINI switched back to the 2007 disc.

What are the new cars being shipped with?

And seriously, this replacement disc must be priced around $50. $200 is ridiculous. I will buy a new one every year at $50, but NEVER at $200!
