Hi newbie2gps,
to the forum!
The TomTom GO 300, 500, and 700 units are still so new that they all have the latest available maps.
In the past, TomTom have offered map updates once a year, around April/May.
Register with TomTom and keep an eye on the forums here and you'll find out when newer maps are available.
Once the maps are available, you'll probably have to order the maps via the TomTom website. Don't forget to store your Product Code in a safe place, as you will need the Product Code to order the upgrade.

The maps are updated once a year (in Spring), you will be offered a discount if you want to upgrade, for now you have the latest available maps. |

But be aware that the terms "updated" and "up-to-date" are not synonymous! The 'latest' maps typically lag reality by two years or more. _________________ Roger
