I have just paid £19 for the speed camera download.
I got a receipt for the amount and an EMail listing several items/downloads.
How on earth do I know which to download and how do I do it?

Hi and Welcome!
It can all look a bit daunting at first, but if you go to the download page (click any of the camera signs around the page) and immediately below the download selection box is a link for "installation instructions. Use that, (or just scroll down) to get to the big green and yellow chart, find Garmin Nuvi (I had to work out for myself that your "200" is a Nuvi), click where it says "click here" in the right column, and you should get specific installation instructions for your machine.
If you don't know whether to go for the "all-in one", the "consolidated by type" or the "speed-zoned" versions of the data, full details of those are all described below that chart, as is a lot of other useful information such as pictures of all the camera types for when you start contributing your own camera sightings. |

Andy,
Just a quick question on this subject. A friend of mine has recently bought a Nuvi 200 and I'm thinking of recommending him to subscribe. Can the 200 handle the database as its currently 13700 POI's and the 200 is specified as 500 max.
I think my 660 is specified at 500 max also and works ok, but I wanted to check before recommending him to sign up as I don't want to be the one who recommends something that breaks it! |

the '500' limit is for saved favourites as opposed to custom poi files which are an entirely different beast 
the nuvi 200 is fine with our database (my wife has a pink one) and i would recommend using the consolidated by type option
