I saw the pdf file of the manual, but even after reading it, a few things are not clear and I haven't seen any detailed written reviews or video demos of the nav.

It looks like you still have to enter addresses one part at a time in a bunch of separate voice prompts for city, street name and house number, unlike the new Toyota systems where you can enter the complete address in a single breath.

It doesn't appear that it has any HondaLink internet connection to find new businesses that are not on the hard disk database and to avoid sending you to businesses that have shut down or moved, but are still in your local database.
The manual says it has a way for you to import additional POIs with a USB stick (although I don't know where you would get this POI data to load on the USB stick).

What really isn't clear is if you can enter a specific business name fully by voice (not a general POI category such as "nearest electronics store") at all.
Can you enter "Best Buy" or "Whole Foods" near your current location or in another city by voice and if so, do you have to enter the name one letter at a time by voice just like using the controller knob or will it recognize spoken business names it has in its local database?"
