SL Nav update

just got something in the mail from MB offering an update to my '07 SL550 nav dvd. Price is $199. has anyone done this and if so what can I expect? Is it simply providing a more current and updated street map or does it actually make looking at the nav screen better? The '07 screen and s/w sucks compared to the newer models. I'm not expecting that quality but wondering if the images will be better and easier to see.

thx

I received the same mail notice. The update will only update the data, not the firmware to improve the visuals and operation. You can buy the disk directly from NavTeq but you pay the same $199 plus shipping and local taxes. The site has a block for a coupon/promotion code but I cannot seem to locate any of them.
