Sorry but things still aren't clear. To me anyhow. I have read the detailled posts several times and there seems to be a contradiction. Help me out.
It is said 1., that the map CDs are specific to a particular GPS, that they only work with the GPS they are bundled with. But it is also said that 2., you can buy new CDs (which aren't of your area) in the shops that will work. So I infer that the bought CDs are not specific to a GPS. Yes?
This means that copies, for example, will work.
I have been travelling in the americas with a US-bought Garmin V GPS for a year and now am in Europe. I am looking for a way of saving myself expense and hassle.
Of the course the guy in the shop Totnm Court Road siad "yes yes, it will work fine on your US GPS, just hand over the readies and see". You wont be surprised to hear that I trust the opinions of the good people of the BB just a little more.
