About how big is the map? I would like to be able to pin-point places all over the map, and I was wondering if that would be possible with the size? I

Not nearly as large as what it looks like in picture Maybe three feet long. Probably. Not the. Best. Size for what. You want to do. Also. Does not stick to wall that is not perfectly. Flat and. Smooth like glass. Hope this helps,.

I couldn't tell you for sure, not knowing where play. But claim to have 10,000 available. This particular GPS allows you to map your own albeit you are limited on how many. I believe it is 3

I thought it was just North America, but I could be wrong. Looking at the product features now, it says "Preloaded maps for North America and Europe, includes over 8 million points of interest."

Anyone who has purchased this: Can you please tell me how the software is? Does it glitch? Is it slow or fast? How does the navigation work? Is it completely different then Google Maps?

I updated the maps once after purchasing the device as new version of the maps were available. Did not encounter any restriction on the no. of times I could do that. Also the documentation says that it is free for the 'usable' life of the device i.e. until the device can support the newer versions of the map either in the sense of its capability or storage space.

Thank you. Sounds good. Now I want to find it in combo with the NuMaps Lifetime. Nuvi combo have the NuMaps Lifetime for $50 extra, but I can't find this with a combo yet.----------------Garmin said the one with lifetime update for maps (3790LMT) would be out in September, keep checking their website. Said the cost was $499.99. I hate to spend that money, but am getting the voice activated one for safety reasons. Said it was shipped to Best Buy, but I can find it only in Canada...

There is a mini SD card slot for navigation. I would think that any maps that can be downloaded to the mini SD card could be loaded into the navigation.

Hello headoverhooves, I will look when I get back to the office on Tuesday September 4th. We bought it for the same thing! But we haven't started placing pens yet so I will have to look at it more closely to see how detailed it is. It is a beautiful map so we are going to keep it even if there isn't much detail. Will get back to you. Email again if I forget please.

Yes Wojciech Jablonka, I wrote that more than a year ago. I´ve just downloaded the last firmware version and now is possible to use 4Gb micro sd-card.About the limit of img files. I really agree that in just one trip you will not need all of these maps, so that´s not really a problem. Brazil is a Continental country and all the maps that I need has more or less 200 Mb. If you go to Europe and for example use the City Navigator Europe from Garmin you will need 1,5Gb. So, 4Gb is more than enough for 99% of people who uses GPSs.

Hi, Yes you need to download maps for each particular region. I have experience with tourist map but not for city navigation. And while it is great for hiking it could be less convenient in a dense city area.Attila

When I emailed NG, the person responded that their software works with the 60CSx. Just one week ago I first tried to download the maps into it and found that it can not be done. I emailed back a complaint and they indicated, as you did, that it only will transfer routes and waypoints. This screwed up my opportunity to use it on a vacation from which I just returned. So, I guess I'd better change my review so I don't give someone else the same misinformation.Sorry for any confusion. I was mislead by NG.

In the one I purchased the maps for Europe are pre-loaded. Once you connect the unit to a computer they, along with the US maps are continuosly updated. Great unit.

You can use it for both activities. Additional maps will depend on the level of detail you want. There are area specific maps available. But for general use it should be fine.

I have not yet even started using it in London, yet, leave alone outside UK. Sorry, I am unable to help you at this point. I may need that sort of help when I start using the world map when I visit Uganda and Zanzibar early next year. I wish I could help.

You can try to play on regular maps, but epic maps are especially recommended. It's base is about as long as 5 and a half regular bases, just for reference
