Default Navigation tutorial disk

Is everyone getting a tutorial cd-rom with the owners manual for the navi system? If so, are you getting the 4th gen disk like I did, or is there a disk for the 5th gen?

All I got was a 1/2 in thick book and a quick start guide.

Default Gen. 5 tutorial not out yet..

however the manual should suffice. The CD ROM is very slow paced and good if you just can't sleep because it will make you nod off....

Does the tutorial disk generation number have ANYTHING to do with the actual nav technology? As I thought the IS250/350 nav was 5th generation? Not 4th?

Default The graphics are outstanding on the IS Gen. 5

Nav. system. Many of the functions are the same. The lines are crisp and seem to be 3D when you glance at them. The msg. readout on the Audio section is not truncated like the Gen. 4. The voice commands are now usable with the Bluetooth. I love the new system and look forward to the ES350 and RX350 having the same technology available. The Acura has a good system but now I'm liking the Gen. 5 Lexus as much.

How do the voice commands work, I read something that it accepts 100 voice commands? So does it mean you can say (while in park) a street address and it'll guide you there? Does Acura's Nav offer anything Lexus' 5th generation nav doesn't have?
