You do not get a World base map ... well not onthe 60CSx I tried here in Australia. Certainly it had some base data for Australia .. but detail in Africa, Eupope and elesewhere in teh world was lacking. It had the main cities .. but no road information.
You could BUY a world map and load that to the unit .. but that is extra $. I think you get a base map that is good for teh place you buy it, less detail eleswhere in the world. You can then buy extra maps, more detail for home and/or more coverage of the world.
Garmins 60CSx page is here

There is a way (not used by me yet and no garentee) to transfere raster (photo) maps to the garmin ... a google on that should turn it up. I'm thinking of doing it for main cities in Africa. And Iran/Pakistan/India...
