Navigation in Honda Odyssey

This weekend was our first chance to have a long trip in the Odyssey. I though that the navigation system was great, and was really useful. There were a few bugs/limitations that I hope get resolved in a future release of the software:

1. Normally when looking at the maps on the screen, we like having
   the top of the screen being straight ahead, instead of due north.
   While driving around the San Francisco Bay area, this is the default
   behavior. But we noticed that when driving around Palm Springs, the
   top of the map was always north. When driving back towards LA,
   suddenly the behavior changed, once we got past a certain point. It
   seems that some maps have information that lets them be rotated, and
   these seem to be in the major metropolitan areas. In other areas, the
   maps are stuck in a north-up orientation.
2. The time to destination calculations do not take into account
   traffic. It seems that all the calulations are doing is distance to
   destination/speed limit. This does not take into account traffic
   delays. What I think that calculation should be is, for each remaining
   leg distance/(average speed on this leg, with the maximum of the speed
   limit)
3. There doesn't seem to be a way to find closest "place" to this
   route. There is a function that lets you sort destinations by
   distance. It appears that it is sorting by "as the crow flys"
   distance. For example, if while driving you want to stop at McDonalds,
   you can tell the Navigation system to show all of the McDonalds, sorted
   by distance. Now pick one that is 1 mile away. Since you are are
   still driving, by the time that you make that selection that may not be
   the closest destination. As well, that one may be a lot further than
   the estimates. What feature I think should be present is, find the
   closest destination to this route, that I will arrive to soon. (So If
   I am moving, it assumes that It will take me 5 minutes to make my
   selection, so use that location as the starting point. If standing
   still, use the current location)

Update: We just noticed that pressing on the "north" indicator causes the display to switch between north orientation to direction orientation.  (Maybe I should have read the manual)
