Is the post code search function part of the map data rather then a function of the SmartST 2005 software?

I have seen many posts here that talked about post code searches. I just bought an iCN 520 in Australia and I cannot find post code search anywhere. When I choose Go To | Address or POI, the only choices are Find town/city, Find street, Find POI and Change State.

Am I missing something? Crying or Very sad

I think it must be a part of the map/country data for two reasons:
1. if you use the US voices it defaults to zipcode and
2. in Australia, the postcodes only relate to a suburb (e.g. 2028 = all of Double Bay, Sydney) making it pointless to use it as a search for an address, whereas a postcode here in the UK can narrow an area down to a particular part of a street.

Can I be so bold to assume that once I install maps of countries that make full use of post codes, the search by post code button will appear on my iCN?
