Default Some disappointments

Picked up my 300h in mid December, Canadian model. Traded a '09 Audi A4.
Apparently Lexus wants to broaden their market share with this car. I feel there are a few simple oversights that could have been avoided and aren't going to favourably impact their image.
The On board computer (nav, audio, etc.) freezes at least once per day.
The radio presets list doesn't display the sat station name. It did on the A4.
The favourite destinations icons just show a number but not the name of the favourite. Audi's favourite list displays names.
There's no excuse for not including the Enform suite in the Canadian delivery model. Especially when they're charging substantially more than the equivalent US model.
And if manufacturers don't include certain options - like Enform - don't "rub customers noses" in that exclusion by providing detailed descriptions of them in the owners' manual with the qualifier "if available ". It's not rocket science to produce an owners' manual specifically for the vehicle it comes with.
C'mon, Lexus, get with the program.

Agree on some of the shortcomings listed though it's a good thing these are minor relative to the strengths of the car.
