I have been using a GPS V for a number of years. It came with a

However if I look on Garmin web site at CS7 these road have not been
updated but CN8 is updated. It looks as if CN can be loaded on a V,
can anybody veryfy this? and what are the limitations. I know it is
time to upgrade the GPS and I have looked at a Quest and the TomTom
for my PDA but online maps for TomTom do not seem to be available.
Thanks,

It would be interesting to know where the map-makers get their info from on
new roads, as I find too that there are many new important roads in my area
which are not on the latest Mapsource versions. Do we have to write in and
tell them or what?



Invite them to lunch in some restaurant which will require them to drive the new roads. If they can't get there with their maps, it might sink in :)
