Default PC Card

Anyone know where you can get a PC card for the Honda Navagation stereo unit? I have the SD card, just need a PC Card (PCMCIA Type) to place it into so I can listen to my music.

Thanks.

IMO navigation is highly over rated. everytime i see it it tell you to turn when you are on a straightaway, or when there is buildings arround you... the best was on Top Gear the Nav system in a Mclaren SLR told Jeremy to turn right when he was in the middle of a 2 mile long bridge

Well, it wouldn't be as effective if it told you to turn EXACTLY when you're supposed to turn. LOL... you'd miss the turn. Also remember that GPS is not EXACT, it's a rough estimate... it is kinda funny about the bridge incident, though.

Do you pay a monthly fee to Honda for the service of on-board navigation? Brochure say it uses a dual layer DVD for much of the info. I'm considering buying a Si Sedan in the spring so I'd like to know more about it? Could of used it 2 weeks ago when I got lost in downtown Portland, however most of our driving is in known places.

Navigation is not for everybody..especially Jeremy if he took that turn on the bridge. I use it very much and am going to link it up to my XM radio to warn me of upcoming traffic jams and have it set to automatically re-route me to avoid such jams.

he was stuck in traffic and he STILL freaked out? i am more worried about "Jeremy" then I am about the nav system. things like nav systems obviously cannot be expected to be perfect. they are what they are designed to be...GUIDES to help you, if "Jeremy" freaked out while stuck in traffic in the middle of a bridge, maybe he should NEVER EVER EVER use his nav system or any nav system EVER again.

IMHO

i mean why freak out? was he actually considering turning even tho stuck on a bridge????
