If you look in the navigation manual it states the website you can go to to verify updates available and then go to a local dealer and they can install them. Sorry i don't have the web address with me. Hope this helps

hey look on ebay I thought I saw some kind of map update CD somewhere on that. I forgot what I was looking for on ebay but ran across that. I don't know if its the newest version. I just got my JK in april and the salesman told me that was the lastest edition of the maps. We have some many new subdivisons going up that i can't find them on there. Hope that helps and if I find something out I will let ya'll know or visversa

Yeah, if you're looking for map updates - you're going to keep looking. They are usually pretty slow to release updates.

My wife's 05 JGC nav isn't updated yet...so that ought to give you a frame of reference. I think they usually take a year or so to release updates. Look at the AVIC-Z1...they had to release a whole new model before they updated their maps for both the new and old model.

Bottom line: don't expect quick updates. If you want quick updates you'll need something that's updatable online like a handheld unit.

I emailed DC about the MYGIG site in the manual not working...I got a canned response and it still doesn't work a month later. I'm not simply looking for Map updates...I want MyGIG O/S updates too, bug fixes, firmware updates...just seems natural for a product of this nature doesn't it?

From what I've seen and read, actually no... Home products you'll see fairly regular updates and that's what we've come to expect, but mobile video/audio products don't get the same treatment for some reason. They tend to release new models instead of updates.
