The metroguide maps are original Garmin maps and are up to date as the North America metroguide is at v7. (v9 refered to in previous post is the latest UK/Europe maps.) Original metroguide maps are not indexed or routable but can be made so by using programs such as metrowhiz. you can do it youself by purchasing a legitimate copy of mgna. It's very easy using the metrowhiz wizard.
I've done it and just returned from 3 weeks in Florida where my little i3 exelled itself. |

US Metroguide is already up to v8, and v9 (or 2008 as it is likely to be called) will not be far away. _________________ Please don't be offended if I do not reply to a PM - please ask questions via the forums. |

Units are shipping with v9 / 2008 in the US already, so yes it's out, but Metroguide is still on v8. Either way, a v7 map is between 2 and 3 years out of date, which is a long time in mapping. _________________ Please don't be offended if I do not reply to a PM - please ask questions via the forums. |
