A couple of nav issues/questions with '07 Altima

I just got my new '07 Altima SE last night with Tech package and overall, I am quite pleased. I am disappointed about one thing though, the nav.

My two issues/questions are the following:

1) It looks like if you want to scroll around the map, you need to use on screen up/down, corner, and rotate buttons. Where are the move left & right buttons? It seems this was designed more for the old '06 style joystick control. Is there a way to move around the map by dragging the map with your finger? This seems to be the way a lot of other GPS units do it.

2) When I navigate to an address, the computer accurately shows where I am and follows me the whole time. When I get close to my destination, I can see the destination icon on the map but the computer will say something like "Destination Complete" even though I am around 500 or so yards away. Last night, I was a whole block away! How come it won't take me any closer? It clearly knows that I am not there yet b/c the destination icon and the current location arrow are not on top of each other. I am pretty sure it has a good satallite lock. Could this be a specific problem with my car or a bug in the software. Any ideas?

This is very frustrating, especially when you are heading to someone's house and it is hard to read house numbers.

Thanks, Chad
