Only if you have bought a new unit within the last 60 days, or have paid for Lifetime updates.
So, for most users, No.
in that case, thanks for nothing.
in the nicest possible way, of course

Thanks for that - I'm currently downloading the update.......

I know what you mean, I'm in the same boat
However I know a couple of 60 day'ers, so they will be happy

I opted for a postal version. The web page said it could take
several hours to download it.
They charged me £5.75 . Should have it within 4/6 weeks

it's a bit too much of a fiddle with the 2010 maps now TBH

IIRC, it's 3.64 Gb. It took me about 50 mins to download but a long time to extract and install. The whole thing probably took about 5 hours.
The good news is that this latest version of City Navigator includes mapping of the new Kincardine Bridge and its approach roads.
Try as I like I can't get the Communicator plug in to work. MyGarmin simply won't see it in my PC at all - very frustrating as I've paid for the lifetime maps and can't download the buggers - any suggestions gratefully received.

Chas,
I have downloaded Garmin Communicator plug in and have had no trouble with it.
I used it to download some "extra vehicles" but didn't like them.
If I remember correctly there is a test page to verify if the plug in is installed.
I don't get it listed on my programmes list tho, but never had any trouble connecting to net with it.
HTH.
Pat.

There are a number of other vehicles, created by users, available free for download from the net. I've currently got the latest Batmobile as an icon on one of my GPS units and several others saved in there as well.

The test page comes up after download but simply says that the page is unable to communicate with my device. I have repeatedly downloaded and run the plug in and even updated the drivers but still get the same message.
I spoke to Garmin yesterday (from work) and they suggested that I clear the internet history and cookies, switch off all virus protection and firewalls and even try a different browser such as Firefox. I didn't get time to try all that last night so cannot comment whether it works or not.

Switched to Firefox and the plug in was detected immediately.
Downloaded the file overnight (5 hours worth) and tried to extract this morning when it came up with a corrupted file message. Looks like I will be trying the download again tonight ....

Took me about the same time. Not sure why it takes so long I have a 2.6MP/sec connection
It only seems to transfer the data at about 100kpsDave
