Anyone Using Real-time Traffic?

My '06 (W220) doesn't have RTT, of course, but it's not working correctly with the new (2007.1) nav DVD and I'm wondering whether the DVD has RTT information on it that might be confusing my nav.

It won't include most freeways in a route. They now show up in orange in the normal map view (no route guidance active). Does that mean anything on the RTT COMAND?

If I get on a freeway while I have route guidance on, the voice says "Warning: time-restricted traffic" and orders me off the freeway at the next exit. Does that message mean anything to anyone with RTT?

My SA is looking into it, but he's got no idea what's going on. If I reload the old DVD, everything is fine. The new one is currently a $199 coaster.

Have RTT on my CL63....seems to indicate what's going on...have little/no use for it, simply b/c traffic on SF Peninsula is exemplary, in terms of its superb efficiency

Would observe that traffic on SF Peninsula...from SF to SiliconValley on 280/relevant cross-arteries is prob fastest urban, rush-hr flow anywhere in world....then consider the lack of weather issues of any kind for some 9+mos/yr.....
