FYI - I just called Amazon, and I spoke with someone that was hard to understand. Anyway, he said he could not confirm the Garmin 350 would ship with v9. I also asked him what is Amazon's return/refund policy, and he was very vague. When I askded him for more info, he said to check online for their return/refund policy. I told him to make a note that I WAS going to buy the Garmin 350 from Amazon, but since he can't guarantee they have v9, I won't be buying it from them! I just sent Amazon an e-mail in response to their so called "Help" call. I'll let you know if I get a reply from them.

Maps for North America are already installed. They need to be updated periodically (~once a year) but the unit should come ready to use.

Thanks, Vanessa :)I followed your instruction, and voila, City Navigator North America NT 2008 is what I got.I ordered the Garmin Nuvi 650 from Amazon at $306.00 on Dec. 26, 2007, the unit arrived on Dec. 28.

I can't imagine that the answer from Garmin makes any sense. Further a 2009 map on one device should show the same details and POIs that another (760) running 2009 has. Mine came today with 2009 maps and 3.x software. I've now upgraded to 4.2 There were other updates also made to the traffic receiver, GPS (MediaTek) chipset and BT version.

I bought mine 10 days ago from Amazon and it came with the 2008 map loaded. As Randy Thress said, you must register your product within 60 days and you get the 2009 map unlocked from the Garmin site for free.

I order it for my frend . It is not mine. But i have seen only USA and Canada maps. I dont know if it is posible to use it anywhere else. Or may be update maps.

G Malley, V2008 is the new version number they use from 2008 and after. v8 is the old map. So yours has the latest map. Great news Rebecca, thanks for sharing the news. I am glad that Garmin does listen to customers' complain so they change the policy. That's what a good company should do.Cheers

You should be able to just download/buy the maps for it, then just update the system, maybe?

Well, it is the updated model...with the features mentioned, plus speed limits for major roads and an indication if you are exceeding it. The maps aren't up to date (at least on mine ordered in Oct. 2012) If you have a memory card that fits the unit you can upload new maps. I had to buy one. I found that (once I had the memory card) the first download of maps took less than an hour when I used the 800 number--unlike the 4 to 5 hours mentioned on line. (I had registered the GPS online.)

I just ordered the Nuvi 1490LMT and received it last week. When I registered it on line I also went through the directions to update maps. The entire process took nearly 3 hours but other than that, easy to follow directions and no problems at all, and it didn't cost anything. I haven't had a chance to actually use the device yet.

I just bought 255w at Amazon but it shipped by another vendor and I just found out It did not have a new map version.How do I update the map(package did not have USB cable and where can I find the Usb cable) I thought If I buy it from Amazon web site all GPS should go with new map.I'm confuse.I need some experts to help me out. Thanks,

I do not think it will since the maps are for US and Canada. Unless you can verify that you can load up the maps for your country.
