Just 2 days before picking up the new car I was reading on X5world about the new release. Thanks to x5world and thanks to everybody who post here, such a wealth of information.

It does not appear to make sense for me to get the 2009.1 version as I'm in the North-East. The updates, which are still not visible on the Navteq website are:

POI's are up considerably (as they used be around 1.7 million) but the rest of the numbers haven't changed much up or down.

I'm also in the Northeast (NYC area) and there are a number of corrections on the new disc. The updated cities they list are when they go out and survey every street. That's areas where the "Correct destination guidance not possible" message overlay shows up on all but major roads (the rest appear in thin gray).

NAVTEQ also gets feedback from customers (there's a web form, but if you call they can pull up the location of the error and let you know if it has been corrected yet, and if so, in what release).

You just have to careful in what you ask for - I asked for Champaign, IL to be added and when I got the next map update, sure enough it was there - but they left out Urbana, IL. Odd since UIUC stands for University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. One more call and I got Urbana and the nearby unincorporated parts of Champaign County added to the next map update.
