I bought a 500 GO last week, and as mentioned elsewhere the manual is crap, and tells you nothing.

I admit Ive not installed the software yet, but I didnt see anything about updating the unit in the manual either.

I assume you can download the latest data online, right?

Two years ago, a two way street became a one way street locally, and its still recognized on the TomTom as being a two way street.

I'll have a look at the website (but before I do, what can you download, and are downloads free) - I guess nav nav-templates arnt updated with the same urgency of new scamera locations. No matter, but despite its foibles, its a fantastic gadget! Podie, did you have yours when you went off hooning across europe by yourself?

I was driving through the fields the other day too, I suppose it can be expected.

So, updated maps need to be paid for, and are released only occasionally rather than weekly?

And where can you get funny voices? Is there much extra space on the card that comes with the 500 for extra data?
