So every week or two when I turn on my nuvi 255W, I get this bug-me
screen saying my map is over a year old and I need to buy a new one--
which I'm not about to do given the cost of the map vs. the cost of a
new GPS with lifetime maps.

Is there a way to disable the bug-me message?

        Well, besides the option buying newer map, the only other option is not
ruining your lovely day. There is no option but ignoring it.

I also got tired of the bug-me message so I downloaded an unlocked map
and installed it. The result was an updated map and no more bug-me
messages. Some people will find this solution unacceptable.

        To me it's a fine option. IOW, if Garmin uses annoying ads to sell their
products then owner has the right to stop the annoying ads.

Umm, where does one find an unlocked map?
