No it doesn't. We ordered one from eBay. Just put in your region that you want. Hope this helps

In the one I purchased the maps for Europe are pre-loaded. Once you connect the unit to a computer they, along with the US maps are continuosly updated. Great unit.

No it is a ripoff. You have to buy an $89 card at BESTBUY to update the maps. It is worthless. I am throwing it in trash. I had 2 buy $150 Garmin at best Buy 2day!!!!

NO! very misleading. I bought this model last year for Germany trip and did not have a map package. Was too late when I got there so I spent a month without a gps.

Yes, assuming you have a Garmin GPS. The maps come on a MicroSD card, with a full-size SD card as a carrier. I use the full-size card in my Garmin Nuvi 205W, where it works fine, or I can put the MicroSD card in my Garmin eTrex legend, and it also shows the maps.

I found that the 3rd party maps ordered at a greatly discounted price does not allow for updates of maps. I guess if it came with the maps preloaded you would get the lifetime updates (LM). I currently have the European maps and get the updates. Did you purchase the unit with LM designated behind model number?

It came with very basic instuctions on a card. More detailed use of a compass can be found on the internet.

No. That's a separate purchase. However the device can use the maps from OpenStreetMap. Plenty of instructions on the web on how to do it. I use OSM maps and they work fine.

It does come with maps; however, they may or may not be the latest. Garmin does allow you to update the maps once for free, but it does require a standard USB to mini-USB cable which is not provided. For more information visit the Garmin website.

Yes, I believe so but it cost money to do so. There is a little memory card which the maps are loaded on and if you needed to you could purchase the updated maps from online.. Although I never had to because the maps is relatively up to date at least in my area

I don't know if it does but I will tell you that I purchased this item and it was not loaded with any maps. So it was useless unless you wanted to spend another $60 to load the maps on. Be careful.

Yes, it has maps for US and Canada. Not Mexico, you have to buy that one and add it if you need it.

No it does not. And the maps that come with it cannot be used to direct you to an address like a street GPS would.

It would depend on where you purchase the device. It should have the area it was purchased in. However if you need a map of a different region you can always purchase and download it.
