The latest maps are the 2008 Maps. These are available from Garmin via their website.
The serial number is under the battery compartment door. |

Just to clarify a point the 2008 mapping is effectively v10, after v9 Garmin adopted a different naming convention.

If you mean other Garmin maps, then as they are the latest maps, I'd say yes.
If you mean other manufacturers (Sony, TomTom etc) it's difficult to say.. |
