OK, so my Carminat is built in TomTom, not a PND, but I thought you'd like this. I kept it in my inbox out of interest and I now see it has expired.

Dear Dennis,
Don't forget our special offer for your Carminat TomTom.
Buy the latest map of Europe on SD card, and we'll give you six months of Map Update Service* – absolutely free.
That means you can save money and enjoy the best navigation experience, all through summer and for the rest of the year.
£ 105.95
The offer ends 31 July 2012 – don't miss out!
It's interesting because it's £105.95 on SD card, as opposed to the downloaded version I bought a fortnight ago for £59.95. Even more interesting because it's version 885 as opposed to the 890 I downloaded. I expect I'll shortly start getting emails to buy map update service for the Euro map I downloaded, perhaps for the £45 I saved not getting an out of date SD card version! _________________ Dennis
It's too late and I can't be bothered to check but I thought that the 885 WE map on sd card was 70 quid. So how can that be 6 months for free? _________________ Garmin Nuvi 2599

Isn't the "on SD Card" map price just that, the bonus is they will provide updates - probably 2 but up to 3 - over the 6 months FOC, as opposed to usually buy on SD Card, that's it, one off? _________________ TomTom Go Live 6100, 600

If the SD card version was independent of the actual device, then there would be an alternative value to the download version. An SD card that could be switched around devices of the USA for example, might be worth it to a bunch of regular visitors, compared to the download which is device specific.
