The manual for the '06 Camry 4-cylinder with 5-speed A/T says the
same thing.

From Page 337:

Change automatic transmission fluid only as necessary.

Generally, it is necessary to change automatic transmission
fluid /only/ if your vehicle is driven under one of the
Special Operating Conditions listed in your Scheduled
Maintenance Guide or Owner's Manual Supplement.

The Special Operating Conditions listed in the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide are:

Driving in desert or on dirt roads.

Driving while towing.

Our favorite book "Auto Upkeep" says to change the
ATF and filter every 2 years, 24,000 miles, or as
recommended by the manual.

"Our?" That may be your favorite book, it certainly isn't mine. :-)
