07 owners - answer these questions...presets,nav, etc

OK,

Figured i'd start the thread up so those of us waiting for some changes to the way the current E works can decide to update the cars w/ 07 parts into 03-06's....

I'll start off with:

Is the memory preset scanning issue finally fixed on 07's

Is the nav on the 07 any different that the nav on 03-06

Is the sharkfin antenna retrofitable on 03-06's

Is the single MP3 player a dvd player

will Sirius display the song on the MFD vs. the channel #

Any info is appreciated!

I can answer a couple of them:
1. Search by memory is officially back on the MY07. Only thing though, it does not work for SAT pre-sets, only AM/FM. Hope they are working to add this??

2. Only very slight. Voice is different - the one from the new S. Also, the option to display the distance and time to destination is now available - in the same place as currently can be occupied by the vehicle coordinates (which seems useless).

3. Sirius display is the same as MY06.

Not sure about the others.

SIRIUS antenna

Silberrosa, is the satellite antenna incorporated in the shark fin? Every picture I have seen has a clean trunk lid without an antenna.
