We were just able to update the software and map for our Garmin 7200 FREE from the Garmin web site. We purchased the 7200 about 10 months ago.

garmin.com

Other than the download took about 7-8 hours and the transfer to the GPS about 2 hours, it worked pretty well.

Have you used the WebUpdater to check on updates for your Nuvi?

I'd check the update. I've updated mine, my uncle's and a good friends in just the past few weeks.
Good luck

Nuvi updates and map upgrades are two different things.

Joe,

What addition of the map software are you referring to? IS it Map Source 2008? or something newer?

Thanks for the info.

A dealer was selling 2009 map software at a rally we attended last weekend.

Garmin City Navigator NT 2009 is now out and selling. Amazon has it and I am sure others as well.

Garmin will give you the update free within the first year of purchasing the GPS.
