I recently acquired a second Nuvi 350 with the 2009 maps pre-loaded.
Yes, it was cheaper than buying the map update but never mind.

The problem is that there was no dvd shipped with the unit so I have no
way to load the maps onto my PC for MapSource. I do have the 2008 maps
so I'm not completely stymied.

The unit broke after about a month, sent it back and they repaired it,
no problem, great service. When I talked to the guy about that I asked
about a DVD and he said they don't do them any more. Since my priority
was getting the hardware fixed I let it go.

Is the guy full of it? Should I call back? Anybody got a unit lately
that included a DVD for 2009 NT?

tia... Bob

from Garmin for free once you register the GPS receiver.

I bought nuvi265 last fall - no DVD. I have never used Mapsource. I never
heard of it until browsing here ( and I still don't know what it is)
