Arrow Navigation CD updates?

I've searched, but been unable to come up w/a source for updated Navigation CD's for my '03 Expedition. I like the Nav system, but am frustrated since the cd's don't have many of the new main roads in my area. Anybody know how I can update the cd's? Ford was no help.

TIA.

I just received my updates last week. Keep in mind that once you use the new CD's, the old ones will no longer work - the new CD's will update the system software when they are inserted for the first time.

Does anyone know the details of the update? And is it worth it? I'm curious if the radio options are also updated.

By the way... is there any way to hook up the phone yet with the phone button?

I don't have the details of the update. I think that only the navigation features are changed (zoom options, # of signals needed to indicate good signal strength, etc.). I haven't noticed anything different with the radio.

Negative. You still must stop before selecting a destination.

Unhappy

Has anyone come across a set of after market discs developed to work on this system that might release some of the functionality like the phone button or the ability to look for a gas station while you are driving down the highway?

Mobile Ease from Linoln and Ford...

http://www.fordgenuineaccessory.com/...35&Submit.y=10

This system will work with a Blue Tooth Phone...
Unfortunately I have Sprint PCS and they only have 1 blue tooth phone that sucks! I'm waiting for the newer BlueTooth/Pda combo phones coming before I purchase the Mobile Ease System...
