Is the stock nav package worth it?

I am the opposite - having the Nav provides integrated functionality you can't get otherwise, such as A/C status, trip computer/fuel records, setting controls such as headlight timeout as well as the expected entertainment features - touchscreen iPod / USB controls, hard drive music storage, etc.

iPod controls is more than enough reason for me to have the nav. Does the nav have a bluetooth for hands free phone calls?

But you can do ipod controls on a aftermarket system as well.

Guys, I just got a letter from Nissan to update my map for a "sales" price of $199...what do you guys think? I mean, I can get a Garmin state of the art GPS with life time map update for cheaper...not to mention, it is probably going to be $199 each year...this is almost as worst as my ex...

You bring up the other bad part of OEM nav's price of an upgrade!!!

That's nuts, how are the maps updated? Is it like a CD you purchase and just update it yourself? Any chance of updating somewhere for cheaper?
