Italy Maps for a Streetpilot i3 please

[Polybear]

Hi,
Can anyone help? I'm off to Italy for a week and want to take my i3 with me. However, it doesn't have Italy Maps on it. Maps from Garmin are expensive just for one week - can anyone suggest any other options please?
Many thanks.

This is now probably too late for you but just in case you have not gone yet, might I suggest that you could use routable OpenStreetMaps of Italy downloaded from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl. These maps do work on the i3 and the PGPSW speed cameras can be installed in the same way as for the normal Garmin maps.
I have not tried the Italy maps but by all accounts they are well regarded and of course they are free.

Many thanks for the reply; in the end I splashed the cash on a new Garmin Nuvi 2495, with free lifetime map updates of Europe as well as Free Lifetime Traffic. It also has a built in foreign language converter, which will even say phrases in a Foreign language I think this is only a trial installation though - presumably it costs money to subscribe after the first month.
It was £139 from Amazon, and Garmin are doing a £30 cashback deal at the moment, so it seemed like the sensible way to go.
