In a big city with exits close to each other, the names were most helpful. You can still look down at the map and header, but no longer verbalized. Also, it seems to have stopped the advance warnings. It used to say ""in a 1/4 mile, turn left on State Street. Then, keep left". No more "Then"'s. I'm assuming it's an error, but speculation that it was easier to internationalize broader without the street names. We shall see...
Weird. I just used it 2 days ago and had none of the issues you are describing. I had the most current updates as well since I updated it when it came out. I wasn't even able to see the display either since I was on the motorcycle with the phone in my pocket and bluetooth to my helmet. I was really relying on the directions too since I didn't know where I was going and it was flawless.

Maybe it's something to do with how the update installs or what I running when the update comes down?
