Salamander11 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Does anyone know how often Garmin City Navigator NT North America is updated? Is a new version likely anytime soon? Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 The previous trend indicates once a year, and updated maps are released about 6 months "ahead" - The 2010 version is hitting the shelves now. You don't need to buy one every year. You can get get an "Update" copy for about 25% less than a full copy, but you must already have a previous installation of a full map. Or, skip a few years and buy an update copy when it suits you. I find my 2008 copy still useful for my area. Quote Link to comment
+GRNZOOM Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I just upgaded from CN V-8 to the 2010 version. I got 2010 on a SD card. My wife's Garmin, will still have V-8. We will be leaving for a 13 state caching trip soon. It will be interesting to see if 2010 is that much better than V-8. Nick Quote Link to comment
+jotne Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 As far as I understand, Garmin will with the new 2010 maps going from 1 update a year to 4 times a year. Same in Europe. Quote Link to comment
+Entropy512 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) It appears that Garmin supports trail-based units (such as the Oregon and Colorado) with nuMaps Lifetime - So you can purchase lifetime updates for your unit (if Garmin's page for nuMaps Lifetime is correct).

Ken in Regina Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 As far as I understand, Garmin will with the new 2010 maps going from 1 update a year to 4 times a year. Same in Europe. Only if you buy the NuMaps update service. The DVD and SD card products will still only be released once a year. ...ken... Quote Link to comment
RedLeg0811 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 So where can I purchase CN 10? I was on Garmin's site and it didn't say the version. I took the part number plugged it into Google and some came up saying 2008 and others said 2009 upgrade. I need to purchase a new full copy for my Oregon. Do I just get the 08 and then download the updated 10? Also was is the best price people have seen for a legal full copy? Thanks Martiin Quote Link to comment

namiboy Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Garmin updates their maps in June and the new ones are out. are the older ones going to go down in price? and how long are they usually available? Quote Link to comment
+FierceDeityLink1 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 If you're buying now, it appears that Amazon has 15% off all maps except the North America 2010 and, of course, the lifetime maps via FatWallet. Quote Link to comment
+Walts Hunting Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Actually I only update mine every 3 years or so. Not much changes. I use Garmin Mobile on the phone so that never needs update but my handhelds get the three year update. Quote Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 To the OP, this year (2009) the downloadable City Navigator North America map updates have been released in January (v2009.1) and in April (v2010.1). It is likely that the next update will be released in July. It will likely be version 2010.2. The DVD version and SD card version seem to be still being released once per year in the spring.

+MustangSmitty Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I just purchased the 2010 map from GPSCity.com last week. They have the best prices. Quote Link to comment
+Nerves Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I have City Navigator NT and find that I can't search for POIs by name. Anyone else have this issue? Quote Link to comment
