NEW 2010 MAPS FOR 2720 STREET PILOT
At this time I have not used the new maps for a trip/vacation but tried it on a short 60 mile trip that I knew the road had changed & the changes were on the new maps. Yes it took a long time to load & I needed to call a tech to help. She was very nice & helpful. She recommended that I use my CD to install new maps because the difference between the download & CD was not worth the time to download the maps.
Pros: it gets you where you want to go. Cons: sometimes takes you in a round about way. Recommend: YES Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

GOOD MAP UPDATE
GPSCity Calgary, Alta provides excellent service - I ordered late PM of one day and Update DVD arrived the following morning Vancouver, B.C. Installation was straightforward - just follow the instructions but timeconsuming. Took one hour to download from Garmin with High Speed internet and then 1 1/2 hr to install on my Nuvi 350 Haven't used it very much yet but did do a bit of exploring of various towns and the new update appears to provide more street names than my previous maps 2008 NT
Pros: would appear to be a good upgrade. Cons: none apparent Recommend: YES Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

2010 UPDATE
Cons: 1. Didn't know that we needed high speed internet 2. It took 4.5 hours to download it 3. Even though our Garmin model was on your list we had to delete part of the information because there was more info than what it would hold. 4. Our city alone had 25 or so businesses that have been out of business 5-10 years. Deleting that info would have allowed us to put all of the current info on our Garmin 5. We think it would be less frustrating to just buy a new Garmin and that is what we would recommend to anyone who asks.
Pros: quick delivery Cons: see above Recommend: NO Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

QUESTION
I have not yet installed this purchase on my Garmin Nuvi 350. I did not ask, nor was told, that high speed internet aceess was necessary. If possible I would like to return this unit (still in plastic casing - unopened) and purchase an SD card.
I completed the Rate this item section above simply because it was required to access the review text.
Thanks

UPDATE EXCLUSION
The update does not consider the type of vehicle one is driving. A class A motorhome or truck is directed onto Parkways, tunnels, and dangerously small roadways. The Nuvi 5000 that I purchased was marketed to RV and truck drivers and all updates should not include illegal or impassable roads.
Pros: easy to read Cons: not suitable for large rv or truck Recommend: NO Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

NUMAPS UPDATE CITY NAVIGATOR NT 2010 NORTH AMERICA
I got the DVD because I have slow internet connection. So, I was frustrated to find out that I could get the most up- to-date maps by downloading them from the internet. I tried, but it ran and it ran. I'm sure it was downloading the entire map set. Why couldn't it just download the updates, so it didn't take so long...

GARMIN GPS NAV NT 2010 UPGRADE
The upgrade is necessary to keep the Nuvi up to date. However this year they changed the way the upgrade is installed on the device. They have the upgrade install the software on your computer and the system needs to access the internet to complete the install. This is way different from previous versions where the upgrade was place directly on the unit through the computer. This made the install a lot longer than previous installs. I did not like the new system. Too complicated and takes resources away from your computer. Garmin needs to take a look at the new install system and in the interest of simplicity and effenciecy go back to the old method of installing their upgrade software. I have no idea why it was installed on my system or how I can reinstall the software if something goes wrong. Their documentation with this product is non-existant. If it works leave well enough alone. If it is not broken don't try to fix it.

The download process was very simple and took about 1.5 hours. I was a little concern from reading the reviews about some of the problems I read about. Everything went fine for me with no problems. Take your time to read first before doing anything and you will be fine. The unit belongs to my college student daughter and a can see a difference with the new version. We have a Garmin 66o nuvii

GARMIN UPDATE NAVIGATOR NT2010-NORTH AMERICA
This is only my second purchase on-line with GPS City. I found, as expected, the process to be seamless and painless. The prompt confirmation and delivery of the product was as advertised, actually quicker.
The product does not allow a download of All Canada & ALL of the US. You must choose the area that is best for you.
Next upgrade will be to the "life time update" package.
No provincial sales tax, only the GST at 5%

BEST MAP UPDATE
Although I am very happy with my Garmin 660 along with the SW and updates, I cannot compare them to any others. I have traveled across Canada and South from Canada through the US to Mexico with few problems, although there has been some misdirects experienced, with the information or unit. I am very disappointed with the recent loss of signal to my Garmin and the resulting need to replace my Garmin at significant cost when the problem was not my doing.
Pros: very high level of reliable information Cons: amount of time between updates and cost. Recommend: YES Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

UPDATE CITY NAVIGATOR NT 2010NORTH AMERICA DVD
Wow, Garmin found Canada again. Best maps since 2004 – when Navteq took over. There was actually water in Williams Lake - still not quite full - and the Fraser river is there (not there last year. Actually they were not even there in Microsoft’s flight simulator X who used Navteq maps. The rural roads around home are named again and appear to be updated. I feel that this is the first set of maps that I have had in my GPS 7200 that make it worthwhile.
Pros: better maps - rural roads Cons: still not enough water in williams lake - only 1/2 Recommend: YES Tag: garmin numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review, numaps update city navigator nt 2010 north america dvd review

IT WORKS.
I bought the City Navigator map update for Garmin units and have used it just a little so far. But it has some new roads on it, that were missing from my last version the 2008. What it's still missing remains to be seen. But, it works.
