I have the east/west 2010 DVD's w/speed and red light cameras. Copies. But once you stick it in the drive, who cares? Wanna pay an additional $100 for a BMW DVD label? I think not. Anyway, I don't have any links, all I have are hard copies.

So you pay and then download? Or they ship you a DVD?

Any differences between 2010 and 2011 other than adding more streets on the map???

Not sure, the map I replaced was a 2008 or 2009.

Is it possible to have the map show the speed camera locations without using a destination? Can't figure out how to get them on the map. I find them on the nav menue and run the search but from there I'm lost.

Update: Twice today my dvd from bmwnavigationmaps.com didn't load up after starting the car. First time I ejected and reloaded the disc, second time I had to do this twice. I've only had this dvd for around a week, no scratches.

It's probably the way they burned the image on the disk. Whenever you make a copy of these map disks, you should burn the DVD at the lowest speed possible. I typically use Verbatim DVD+R with no issues at all. Get them to burn a second copy for you.

Yes there is. After you are done searching for the speed cameras, go back to the Map View. The speed cameras will be displayed as icons on the map when you pass them. Great feature IMHO. http://www.bmwnavigationmaps.com guys are very knowledgeable and very quick to get back to me. I wish all companies had such excellent customer service. I bought DVDs form these guys for both my bimmers.
