How do I know which version I have? I recently had my nav replaced and I know its different because it doesnt ask me to "agree" anymore but I dont know which one I have.

Push the "MENU" button on the side of the display. Then select the "HDD" in the upper right corner of the touch screen.

OBSOLUTEY NOT! Do not let the dealer do this. If your GS is anything like the LS, the procedure takes all of 5 minutes. NOT one hour! This post makes me mad when I see a dealer try to take advantage of someone. Get the disc from Sewelll parts for about 200 plus 8 dollors shipping and put it in yourself. This sis not hard like replacing a transmission. You can do it. Don't throw your money away to these vultures!

Just to confirm, you will not be able to do this at home, and I would bet will never be able to.
The USB has a key that is loaded to an updated tool and the update is tranfered to the vehicle. You will need the USB, a techstream, and the update tool (which is pretty much a portable hard drive with a disk drive).
Honestly, its a pain in the *** the first few you do.

9.1 removes "I agree" screen and some other snappier enhancements. It was major step up from 07 and early 08s (if not updated.)
07 LS460 and on is DEALER only, and even THE DEALER had a hard time. Took weeks to get the software and tools in, and then get the training. And it was $300+
Most of these cars are driven by the slightly less car-enthusiast crowd and there are almost never requests for updates in my area, much less when I stumped them further by requesting the Gracenote updates. . I might as well have asked to have rocket installed on the roof.
My suggestion: If you have what came with the car, grab 10.1. If you are on 9.1 and don't live in a rapidly changing landscape, you can coast another year or so.
