I just bought and downloaded an update for my NA maps for my Nuvi 255.
There were a few surprises in the logistics,
but I'll leave that for another thread.

My basic question here is -
what's the size differences between the three major map selections
offered during the actual download dialog:
I did the Lower 49 - but could go back & redo it.

All of North America
US & Canada
Lower 49

On some of the units there is not enough internal memory to accomadate the
latest map update. How does one find that out short of going through the
install proceedure and getting the bad news that way?

On units that are recognized as USB storage devices when connected to a
PC, just click on 'Properties' via the Windows Explorer.

On units that are not recognized when connected to a PC, put the unit
into its diagnostic mode if available and the amount of memory should be
displayed.
