Question Navigation for SL? Confused and Frustrated.

I'm really confused. First, do I need a firmware update in order to upgrade my Navigation. Read somewhere that a dealer automatically upgrades the firmware at service. My dealer said he didn't know what I was talking about. Also, is there a 2011 Navigation Disc available - or a 2012? What's the product number for an SL. I still have the original 2006 SL Disc and it almost took me into a pond. Should I get a 2012 - is there a 2012? When does it come out? Or should (and is there) a 2011 disc I can pick-up? Going on Ebay it's like a verbage frenzy - no idea what's what.

all you need is a little SW upgrade if your system is 2004 and previous, find it on the internet.
otherwize, with ntg1 unit you are able to use the newest "green label" navi packs.
hope this helps!
