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

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

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 .....
