I was looking around for you on the Dutch Saab forum but they haven't found any updates either.
It's a long shot but perhaps you can find out if there are any other GM models that use the same navigation system. It could be the same as the 9-4X and Cadillac SRX but European map updates for those are probably difficult to find as well.

Some say the update is done through the USB port (by the dealer) and others think it is with a DVD. The navigation system is made by Denso with maps by Navteq. It appears to be the same as the one in the Opel Ampera / Chevrolet Volt and some Jaguar/Land Rover models. However, they also say map updates for each brand are specific to that brand. Navteq can't supply updates directly because of contracts with the manufacturer.
Perhaps contacting Saab Parts in Sweden or the US will provide more information.

Hello Paulo,
The delay is caused by the bankruptcy of Saab Automobile AB in
December 2011. We, at Saab Automobile Parts AB, is working with the
supplier and hope to have updates available as soon as possible.
Best regards

No sorry, I don't know anything more about those updates or systems.
