OK, well the 430N does not have DR (gyro) and also doesn't have the Sirius traffic display capability. The voice prompt quality is also not very good. I asked about building a Sport and putting a 730N in at the dealer, but the dealer says it requires a different harness that only the Laramie comes with. Really ridiculous that ALL the 2010's models came with the 730N option, but for the 2011's, only the Laramie offers it. Booooo!

differences
Major differences:
Internal storage: 730NM has 40 GB HD
Graphics: The RHB uses navigation software by Garmin, while the RER/RHR uses navigation software by Navteq. The graphics and some features are different.
Dead Reckoning: When a vehicle doesn't have a clear view of the sky - such as in a tunnel or garage, or when surrounded by tall buildings - all navigationsystems lose reception of GPS satellite signals. The 730N has a "dead reckoning" feature which enables it to estimate the current location until the sky is once again visible. (At start-up, it also remembers the vehicles last location, and immediately displays this estimated location until it can read signals for a precise fix). This is also known as "Enhanced GPS". The RHB does not have dead reckoning: it will display a question mark until it can receive GPS satellite signals and identify the current location.
Voice Command: With the 730N, drivers can program a desired destination using Uconnect Voice Command, while the vehicle is in motion. While the voice command is packaged with the 430N on most vehicles (and an option on the rest), it cannot be used to operate the navigationsystem - the vehicle must be parked so that drivers can enter a destination using the on-screen keyboard.
Traffic: The 730N includes traffic information provided by sirius; the first year's subscription is free. The 430N does not offer this feature. However, the 430N is able to receive the SIRIUS Travel Link service, with helpful information about weather, nearby filling stations and prices, nearby movie theaters and show times, and even sports scores. The RER radio cannot do this, but its replacement model, the RHR, includes the feature.
Split-screen mode: With the 730N you can view music and navigation screens at the same time.

SPRADMAN,
I don't believe there is a way to program the 730N navigation system to the 430N navigation system as the radios are different. The 730N is an RHR radio and the 430N is an RHB.
