I just purchased an Alpine NVE-N852A dvd nav unit for my Z. Very nice system! However, mine only came with version 1.3 of the software, rather than the newest 2.0.

My request is this: If there is anyone in the eastern US who has the version 2.0 software, would you be willing to sell me your western US disc? For those of you not familiar with the latest Alpine dvd nav software, version 2.0 actually comes on *two* DVDs: eastern and western US. The road data and navigation data are identical on the two discs so no routing capabilities are lost by only having one disc. The only thing different between the two is the collection of points-of-interest. (ATMs, restaurants, gas stations, etc.)

Alpine charges $300 for the two-disc set, so I would be willing to pay $150 for someone's western US disc if they don't need it. I'm just trying to avoid the full $300 upgrade, especially since I just spent so much money on the hardware. I guess I figured by buying a brand new nav system it might include newest software. Guess not.

Thanks.
