Nav / command software update question

Tried asking this in the CL AMG forum with no luck. Hopefully someone here can help. My gf has a 2011 c300 and her nav looks so much better then my 08cl63. Plus when you plug your iPod in, you can see all the different play lists on the command screen of the c300. You don't see any of that on my car. Is there a software update of some sort available? I know the cars are 3 years apart but your talking about a 40k and a 140k car. It seems that Benz would make the 140k car software updatable.

Anton, I have wished for the same thing for my 2009 CL. From what MBUSA has told me though, is that that MB changed the head units in 2010 to give the cars all of those features. Sadly, they said that there is no software upgrade available. You sound like you might be as disappointed as I am with this!

Well that sucks! Thanks for the input Helmut430. This is very disapointing to say the least.
