I think you'll find the $75 is for an unlock code for an update disk and the £140 including VAT is for a standalone version of CN Europe. 
I HAVE VERSION 9

Mmm, confusing. So what's an update disk - is that a low cost way of upgrading from a previous version? I have v7 so can I pay just 40 quid to get a v9 update or do I need to pay the full whack for Standalone? (Tried calling Garmin but they shut at 1730).

right those that asked me... i'll try making a copies of Version9 tonight before i lend it to a mate
Should just be the $75 update that you need. BTW you'll need to add Gordons VAT onto that cost. You can order it here: http://www.garmin.com/unlock/update.jsp
HTH
Just a BTW, the lad I was talking to in Garmin said they had no problem with
sharing copies of the DVD, he said if anyone wants to confirm this to ring
the sales dept.
I spent the last hour calling to Halfords, Harvey Normans etc.. But they have
loads of Ver. 9 it's just the wrong one.

You don't pay for the disc, thats free. Hence when you get one, load it and pass it on to someone else.
You pay for the unlock code.
Leave the paying for a disc to the muppets on ebay

OK ! If some one gives me the disk I'll feckin pass it on, now will someone

Pity Garmin didn't leave it on an FTP site or something, I'd have it downloaded
by 12:00 and start mass-production.
Thanks gents.

To all those i said i would do copies for....Sorry boys i just tried to copy it.... the image is over 6.4 GIG and a standard DVD is 4.7 max.... i don't have any dual layer DVDs and they are too expensive locally for me to buy them and post them for free so i'm gonna have to disapoint you all... you'll have to wait for Garmin

No bother at all Tuned, thanks very much for trying though.
Sure it can't be much longer now.
Cheers, Daithi.

Hang on, the maps are less than 2GB and Mapsource is less than 100MB... sure there'll be installers and stuff but that won't amount to much. Wonder what else is on the DVD
Will have to wait and see.

It's all getting a bit annoying now.. By the time we get the discs, the maps will be about a year old already... Garmin have some real production problems to sort out.
Shame they don't make it available for download.. Even at 7GB it would only take a day or two to download, and I'd have had it months before they could get a DVD to me.

As opposed to 1.5GB on the CN8 dvd...

Maybe there's an option to load an alternate map-set with small map tiles just for those of us with Quests...I always said there were a lot of wee roads in Ireland
Well I can hopelessly live in hope can't I
Almost worth holding out for v10 and saving £40 odd quid.

You haven't seen the V8 maps for Ireland then! Grand if you live in a City, but pure nasty outside of the cities.
How long do you think it would take to get v10?!
