Are the 2012 OSD Volvos with the Garmin option arriving with the 2011 Garmin 3790 model or the 2012 3490 model? There are some software improvements (bugs fixed) and the live traffic comes from HD radio instead of FM radio signals. The USA Volvo website still lists the Garmin 3790 model.

Are the 2012 OSD Volvos with the Garmin option arriving with the 2011 Garmin 3790 model or the 2012 3490 model? There are some software improvements (bugs fixed) and the live traffic comes from HD radio instead of FM radio signals. The USA Volvo website still lists the Garmin 3790 model.
