Not an expensive education at all, just luck going to the only council school in the county that did Latin.

Actually in modern English forums is probably the correct plural of forum (rather than fora - which is correct in latin), however it appears that even Lords have a problem as well:

I suppose it is the same as discuses discii issue. talking of round things i still haven't got my Disc from Garmin yet. i guess it will be next year before we get to upgrade then

If you've got a UK only map Nuvi, would you get a free upgrade to full Europe do you think?


Locksmith has everything gone through ok with teh Uk map onlu Nuvi upgrading to the new V9 map?

I have a Nuvi 310 and i am thinking of upgrading to v9 but can only see that it is a europe upgrade so i should get all the maps for europe. Am i correct in my thinking?

Cheers

Me thinks not. The Garmin website has a section where it suggests that you can buy additional regions - not sure if this applies to V9 Europe. Given the price of a full access V9 disk I doubt that Garmin will be giving this away for free.

Email Garmin with your serial number ( under the battery door ) & ask them nicely.

Just been reading the instructions on how to update the mapping. It seems to appear that i can put the new mapping onto a new microSD card. Is this right?
