You should be. Register the unit on the Garmin web site and see what it says. |

I've just done the above, and they say "No Map Updates Available", so I guess not ![Sad](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif) _________________ "Gort...Klaatu barada nikto"

Where are you located? If you're looking for the new NA City Navigator, it hasn't released yet. Should be out within 30 days. |

Go to tools, settings, map, then at the bottom of the screen, touch map info. Likely shows NT2008, which is the current map |

This is the screen shot, so it looks like I'm upto date
BTW does that mean I have Europe maps as well ![Confused](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif) _________________ "Gort...Klaatu barada nikto"

Are you sure? I think the answer is he only has UK and Ireland but not the rest of Europe. |

Thought the OP would probably have the current maps, I bought my Nuvi in January and they were 2008 version. Next question - if I know someone with Europe maps on their unit can I overwrite my unit's UK maps with their files, or are the map files locked to the individual unit? I'm guessing the latter ..... |
