Garmin a little GreedyNov 16, 2009 I like Gramin products very much. Have two GPS's and paid good money for them. I bought this map and I was able to use it with only one GPS. Was planning to update my other GPS but Garmin does not allow its use with more than one, and charges full price to update the other unit. I understand limiting the use but, if you own several GPS you should be able to use your DVD map to update your units.
Old inventory sell outNov 15, 2009 I bought this product last week and it is the same old 2007 maps. Waste of money. And Garmin is selling 2010 maps, cheaper than this.
very improved mapping productOct 31, 2009 I am a Garmin product user for years, and after using version 6 & 8, the new NT version is a vast improvement. I mostly use Garmin products for planning bicycling routes, mostly in New Jersey but also other states while vacationing.
The older map versions always suffered from route inaccuracies, mostly missing roads, but every once in a while showing a road that doesn't exist. The NT version seems to address many of these short comings.

Maps are fine, but not for 2 GPSrs or if you upgrade your GPSrAug 09, 2009 The mapping software is just fine and does everything that one needs it to do. The price point is comparable to other units.
However, the current licensing agreement is shady. You would think when you buy a map, you can use the map. On other GPSrs we have had (Lowrance), we have been able to install the map on up to 6 SD cards.
With CN NT, you can unlock the map for one unit, period. If you have two units, you need to buy a map for the second unit. If you upgrade your GPSr, you are out of luck unless you can get Garmin to relock the first unit and unlock the new one. Bottom line, plan on buying a new map for each GPSr in your purchase price and, of course, without detailed road maps your GPSr base mapes are basically useless for road navigation.
Garmin's license agreement is not explicit on this point. Yes I know that they need to find a way to prevent someone from installing the maps on hundreds of units, but most software vendors have some provision for householding. Even Microsoft gives you a PC and a Laptop install.

Good Service, Troublesome SoftwareAug 06, 2009 Item shipped promtly and arrived quickly.
Had some issues with the software that once installed the program would have an error on start-up and fail. After 3 or 4 Uninstall/Reinstalls it worked great!
Definately reccomend this over the Mini SD card version as this allows you to control the map on your computer and have future rights/access to it.
