Just for info it seems that Garmin are slowly leaking information that map updates in future will be limited to 3 a year, as 'apparently' most people only update their maps 3 times a year!

Fine by me.

Roads don't change that much to warrant 4 a year.

As per my latest entry in another thread, quality is better than quantity. Their map details in my area are diabolical I'm sorry to say.

So what makes you think that fewer updates will improve quality?
