Hi,
I have a tomtom GO 500 purchased in Australia wihch naturally came with Australian maps. However I would like to get the US maps (California) for it.
Does anyone know where I get these in Australia or does anyone know if I can buy and download from the TT website. I notice that the website states that you must already own at least one TT map already to buy online, but when going through the purchase process there is no option of those who have existing Australian maps only.
Alternativley anyone know of an Australian support number I can call to find out.

I’ve checked YahooAustralia & NZ, here are a few places that sell TomTom USA maps:
Expansys A$244.95, see here
i-tech A$335.00, see here
cam1 A$338.00, see here

You can buy and download selected cities in California from the TomTom website, but I don’t think that you are able to download the whole state of California.

I am a bit confused though as the expansys product is a set of CD's which the site says is the software for any PDA. While the i-tech site states that it is a SD CARD for the tomtom ONE (not the GO) same as the cam1 site. expansys also have a link to a SD Card version but do not state which model it is for.
Thus I am not sure, do I need the CD's or the SD Card and is the tomtom ONE maps the same as the tomtom GO maps?.
I just have received a email response from tomtom support (within 1 hour, talk about great support!!!!) stating that I can buy the complete "Western Region USA" online and download, just have to say I have UK maps when it asks what maps I already have. This is only 60 Euros (AU$95).
Thanks for your advise, according to tech supp I am better off just buying the region I want. At least I know that what I am buying it correct for my model.
