New Mapping on Nav System

I have a 2007 S550 and am waiting on my GL. I tried out the new mapping system provided through Yahoo and Google with the 550 and it works like a charm. Presently, it is only offered in the S and new C class cars. I wondered it anyone knows if they are going to extend it to other classes. It seems the nav systems and technology is the same and it would be a great plus to extend it to the other lines.

I am sure it will be offered in later editions of the COMAND but not until it includes a hard drive based system like the S, the CL and the new C. Perhaps an update in the 2009 model?

GL Fahrer may have some information on that system maybe.

2019 Volvo XC90 Magic/Amber, '95 E320 Cabriolet Midnight,'14 GL350 Lunar/Almond was '07 GL320CDI
i read somewhere (don't flame me, i will look to see if i can remember-it may have been latest STAR) that they are incorporating it as a running change in calendar 08...would be nice. I'd even retrofit a new COMAND...of course, that's a laugh, the word retrofit and MB
