Starting w/ a MK2
is it worth making the jump to MK4, if all I really want is faster speed and split screen? or would MK3 be the best route. the CD thing is fine, I live in AZ...it's not like I'll be swapping CD's left and right, maybe if I drove to NV or CA I'd have to swap but thats it.

Aside for saying you have the MK4, can anyone tell me what another reason to go all the way to MK4

Other than that you have listed? faster updating and just generally nicer fonts and screen layout?

I like that it computes journey information quicker and when I make a wrong turn it tells me quickly... good when you are in town and dont have the 30 seconds to wait for it to start navigating again.
