    I would like to find out if the naviken maps on cd and the special cd for the navi saturn made by hitachi were included with the navi saturn main board.
    I don't have those myself(I bought navi+screen and they weren't included) but since there are some owners here of navi +screen set ups,that would be great to know.

    Bought mine with the two cds and as far as I know, there's a shop in my town that got a boxed one which also includes the two cd.

    So they were included in the original package of the main navi saturn or with the screen?

    Just look in the instructions for the unit to see what is meant to be included.

    You were lucky to get them then!
    There is no sign of them in the manual as far as I can tell.

    Well it would stand to reason that they'd come with the unit but a dredged up memory suggests otherwise tbh. After all, you'd think all navis would have come with the screen as standard too..it can't be used car style without (can it?) so the unit on its own would have been a pricey saturn with no extra functionality.

    Edit

    It says here that any naviken software works in it, it doesn't require a system disc or boot disc. I'm ignorant as to whether naviken software is just a regular disc or specific naisaturn software. If it is just regular, I'd assume that no software came with it, you'd just buy or use whatever naviken cds you wanted. If naviken is navisaturn only software..well then I couldn't say, but logic would dictate that it would come with the system surely!

    I bought mine from a friend, it didn't have the screen because this one was dead.

    Aren't they, surely, Japanese maps? Not much use outside Japan, really! And several years old, too.
