Default Updating navigation for 2004 RX 330??

Ive been reading some threads on here but am not sure what to really do still.

Can I update my navigation on the RX 330? Mostly, Id like the POI to be better, my bf has a Garmin and his shows about 99% of the POI we enter into it...its like looking up google maps for something on his.

On my nav, its so outdated, only about 50% of the POI are in there and the set up is poor as in when I search "target" for instance, it wont show me the list by distance with the closest one first...it'll instead return a bunch of different "target" etc...

Just wondering if the functionality is much better with the upgrade disk.

Lastly--which specific upgrade disk would I need and where can I buy it besides the Lexus Dealer?

Thanks!!!

The new version (7.1) will be out soon (if not already). That is the one I would get. You need to look for a generation 3 DVD version.
