Default Nav upgrade from 9.1

I have a 2006 IS350. Current Nav version is 9.1

Thinking of upgrading to 12.1. Last time i went from original (6.1?) to 9.1 it got a bit less 'nannyish', in particular I didn't have to hit the 'I Agree' button.

Are there any further 'un-nannying' since 9.1? Not sure i want to drop $170 for only map updates.

I believe it's all still just maps.

I went from 6 to 12. Mainly just notice the "I agree" and maps.

I was thinking about upgrading from version 6 to 12 as well, but decided against it, believed it would be a waste of money since I hardly use my car Nav and always use the nav on my iphone.

IMHO, I'd spend the $170 or whatever it costs for an upgrade on another modification or just put it in your savings account for a rainy day.

They will work as long as they burn them correctly.
