Navteq latest update

[scotgc]

Just wondering for those of you who have received this free update was there any noticable difference? Personally I would much rather have received updates every two years instead of annually as road layouts etc dont have a habit of changing every year. Assuming the graphics will remain the same as well.

Minor differences - lost some POIs that were out of date and gained some new ones - also some of the old ones seem to have moved to the other side of the road

Doesn't have the latest updates on roads in my area, probably 6 months out of date

Afterthought

I would also have preferred every 2 years or so, but it has occurred to me that as they have changed to the new disc based system how long will they keep manufacturing the DVD based system? Especially as the DVD system appaears to have more information, e.g. Speed Cameras.
