it just requires a DVD that you need to update every 2-3 years... the car comes with the most recent one though

Not all NAV can be updated! Because on my 03 I can not up date to the 7.0+! I only can go to max 6.7 I think! I have try to put a 05 7.0+ and 06 7.0+ DVD in my, and my NAV can't read it!

you should be able to upgrade to the '05 navi versions... I know the 06 is using whole new hardware or whatever so it can't...

the year 05 is still version 6.X...

all the information regarding buying the updated Disks can be found here:
http://www.zenrin.com/infinitiSystem.asp

the latest version for 03-05 Navigations is 6.4.

But to answer your question: We don't pay any monthly dues/fees whatsoever but I guess you can kinda say $200 a year is some sort of fees lol

DO a search, there was a thread on how the Navi does much more than just show streets.

i thought i wouldnt utilize the navigation feature that much either being that i had a fairly good understanding of my own area, but i leave my area here and there and now i never have to worry about being lost because i can always ask it to take me home and its the reason i took my sat, mapquest was smoking crack that day.
