Default NAvigation Question 2010 S4

I had a question about the Navigation on the new S4. According to the marketing material, you should be able to see buildings in 3D pop up on the Navigation screen. Especially in Driving through major cities....I live in Philadelphia, PA and when driving through the city, I have yet to see any 3D buildings pop up on the screen...Has anyone actually seen these buildings on their Nav? Any City? Where? I am pretty sure I have the settings correct, and am curious if someone knows anything about this? Thanks! What am I doing wrong?

You need to zoom in. In DC, buildings don't appear until you're at (I think) the 200 yard scale. Then, major landmarks (the Pentagon, the various monuments, the White House, etc.) appear in fairly accurate detail. At 100 yards, you get blocks to represent other buildings, but that clutters the map so much as to be useless.

Also, make sure your map is on 3D Map and not 2D Map. You can go to Navigation settings to do this or, for those with voice, simply say "3D Map" when prompted.
