is different the 2003 COMAND for a C32?
I ordered my car with COMAND and it should be here next week. Well, the point is that today I was checking the updated price for everything at the MBUSA.com and I figured out that there is not a Navigation CD collection at the Accessories menu... 
is this a evidence that the 2003 COMAND has just one CD?, thus DVD based...
Thanks

COMAND will stay CD based until later in the 2003 model year I am told. At that point Mercedes is planning on switching to the new DVD based units.
Weird they would do this in the middle of a model year run, however, anything is possible.

I would rather have the DVD based COMAND than the CD based one. Thanks!

My dealership told me that the new DVD Comand will only be available on the 2003 S and CL cars, and it will be available in 2004 for all of the other classes.

According to my dealer, DVD COMMAND will be available in E, S, and CL cars -- but not until January at the earliest.
The S and CL cars will ship this year with COMMAND, and beginning in Jan 03 will ship with the DVD enhanced unit.
The E class cannot be ordered with the DVD COMMAND yet -- which will be called COMMAND II.
Other models -- C, CLK, SLK, SL, ML will not get COMMAND II until the 04 model year.
