For that price they are NOT the latest version.
Also the latest v6.6 is a seamless SINGLE map of the whole of Europe. This is a set of INDIVIDUAL country maps. |

Hi there does this ver 6.6 contain maps of Greece?? I have just wasted £150 on a cartrek 400 which is supposed to come with greece mapping via download but thats not available. I am returning this for a full refund and I really want a tomtom but as said before need some kind of greece mapping in the future, what's the chances of tomtom releasing some greece maps some time soon? any one know? or can you suggest a good sat nav which can provide these maps? Appologies if this post is in the wrong place!! cheers |

TT don't currently cover Greece & i don't know who does.
Sorry for all the negatives.
How about a google search of satnav/greece? |

The v650.1052 Western And Central Europe map loaded on my Go 910 covers mainland Greece, not too sure how well mapped the country is but major cities like Athens appear well defined - Mike |

Typical TomTom. Not a mention ANYWHERE that their map covers Greece.
Good new though |

The map came with the device, it is not something I have added, below are a couple of screen shots from the unit, the first one shows mainland Greece, the areas mapped can be made out from the different colours on the map.
This second screen shot shows the level of street definition actually in Athens:

As the binman says, there is NO indication of this coverage anywhere that I can find on the TT website (and boy, I've looked!), so MAYBE the downloadable Western Europe map acually has the same sort of detail.
Anyone in a position to check? |

Isn't the 910 Western Europe map a special for that device only? it is considerably larger in file size, I appreciate I have mine stuffed full of POI at the moment but the map folder is 1,5GB - Mike |

can anyone suggest a good sat nav device for under £200 which either has full euro mapping or can be obtained later? |
