Garmin haven't released the update from V9 to NT 2008 Europe yet. I was talking to them by phone in the US about an hour ago.

You can buy the full version NT 2008 Europe no problem, but its the update I'm looking for.

Hmmm yes, they say doesn't always mean they can get it.

Although, that said, I found out about it two days ago so probably we'll get it in our shop soon.

I'll keep you posted :-)

Thanks David.

David, do you sell Garmin mapping ? based on your comment above !
Just wondering because I will most likely have to get some mapping for the colorado 300 on SD card.

Cheers
John

Hi Jaws,

Yes, I'm helping a friend out who runs a Garmin shop, we're mostly specialised in the motorbike stuff but we can get all of their bits on order.

I was trying to avoid making this forum a hard sell type of place (hence I haven't really mentioned it) but if you need something, feel free

David

David,

Haven't had any success trying to buy Europe 2008 update. Even though the site shows it as available when I go in to buy it shows as not being so.

Hmm,

Did you try this:

Garmin. We'll Take You There.®, click 'mygarmin'
sign in to mygarmin.com with your login

If you have not already registered your unit serial number to your userid, you will need to do so (if you have not done so already, this may mean that you are entitled to the update
free of charge)

On the right hand side of the screen after you sign in, your registered GPs products should appear

Click on one of them (there is probably only one in your case, a Zumo?)

And click on the 'Map Updates' link

This should allow you to order the updates

Does that help?

David

Just trying my hand at MAPSOURCE for the first time. I'm at about 0.0001% but it looks exciting. I've already managed to load a route on to my Garmin!
