Comand "House Number" Address Entry

I just got my car this week with Comand. I've perused the manual, but have not yet read it completely. One thing I'm struggling with so far is that it appears you cannot enter an exact destination address, such as 123 Main St. Instead, the "house numbers" can only be specified via a range (e.g., 111-151 or 112-151). Is this correct?

Even Hertz rental cars "NeverLost" system allows entry of exact addresses....

You can't put in an exact address, just a range of addresses.

Especially for the fact that your hardly going to be able to pull more than 2 satellites anyway... the error rate is like 50 yards so that house address most times in suburban areas wont matter.

You can enter an exact address, but the option that COMAND returns is a range of numbers--probably a block in the neighborhood. You still need a pair of sharp eyes in daytime and a flashlight at night to discern a specific address. Of course if you are looking for a movie theatre or the empire state building, then your destination will be obvious to you when you approach.

Two satellites will not give you a position solution. Three are required, and they must be in a suitable geometry.

You can input the exact address, the next screen will give you the address block selection. The CEP for a GPS position(with at least 3 SATS) is about 50 ft. My system routinely acquires seven of the constellation SATS
