USA/Canada Map... V6.6 downloadable in UK, V6.65 in USA??
Why are they different?
I was planning on buying the USA/Canada maps for a trip in late 2007/2008 whilst there is a 20% discount.
How often are maps replaced? |

Good question that. Ask the TomTom Marketing geniuses.
Maps were historically replaced once a year. Lately we have seen half-yearly or - gosh - quarterly updates/releases. Don't expect these to generally be free or discounted, after all that's what the above mentioned geniuses get their paycheck from. _________________ Lutz

Thanks
I think I will wait until late 2007/2008 and buy just before I go.
It's a shame Tomtom don't allow unlimited downloads of any maps for a yearly fee. I assume most people, like me, only buy different continents when they go on holiday. |
