NO! A mod would be best to just kill it. Please kill it. Or do I have to try and do the Bill Madison:
Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul

It does mean if I were buying today I could at least take the OEM nav option seriously though... No apparent change to anything else on the car though besides the nav/audio stuff.

Amazing! I want these new features
To further enhance the driving experience, iPod®/USB connectivity, streaming audio via Bluetooth® and an integrated satellite radio receiver are added to the standard Lexus Premium Sound System. The optional Lexus Navigation system has been updated with Voice Command casual-language voice recognition and Bluetooth® phonebook download capability. The navigation system also features an integrated XM NavTraffic®, XMWeather™ and XM® Sports/Stocks receiver and comes with a complimentary 90-day trial subscription. Finally, two all-new telematics products are available with a complimentary one-year trial subscription. Lexus Enform™, which automatically comes with Safety Connect™, is only available with navigation-equipped vehicles. Safety Connect is also offered as a standalone option.

Sweet, IS navigation finally enters the 21s century and catches up to what Garmins did 5 years ago!

Plus, a DVD drive running the nav will be a lot more reliable over the long term than a hard drive. (flash memory/SSD would've been nice, and pretty cheap for the size it'd need, but a lot harder to update for the average user)
