I purchased this unit on 24 December, 2007 and I was able to pull up cities in Canada from the East to West coast.

Only you can decide the better deal. If you take a look at the matrix chart on this page you will see some differences. Do you want TTS? The 205 doesn't have it. Want Canada and Alaska maps? The 205 doesn't have it. As far as discontinued, models get discontinued all the time. That does not mean unsupported.You also might want to check out the professional reviews at gpsmagazine.com to help you decide.

Well, the one I bought has only North America and Europe Maps preloaded on it, and these can be updated regularly. You should contact Garmin directly through their website to inquire if you can upload maps from other regions onto the unit. Good luck.

Thank you. Sounds good. Now I want to find it in combo with the NuMaps Lifetime. Nuvi combo have the NuMaps Lifetime for $50 extra, but I can't find this with a combo yet.----------------Garmin said the one with lifetime update for maps (3790LMT) would be out in September, keep checking their website. Said the cost was $499.99. I hate to spend that money, but am getting the voice activated one for safety reasons. Said it was shipped to Best Buy, but I can find it only in Canada...

Not that I have found... It uses the pre-installed worlds maps which are similar to Google's...The best one to use is the Summit Series TOPO for your region, which you download after receiving the unit...I really like the rugged feel and accuracy with this unit... and as with most, carry extra batteries, although the life is better than some... updated fix is available for the traking in suspend mode problem, and mine tracks fine when suspended now...Hope this helps...

You can order the maps or firmware upgrade from the seller you purchased from. I have these. Thanks.

this model has United states, Canada, and Mexico maps loaded, it does not have enough internal memory to load any more maps, you would have to delete this map (make sure you back it up first) and then buy another map if you were to go outside of these countries

Sorry for the delay...I was not physically by the GPS to check it. I tried several destination in Canada and it appears to build detailed routes to those destinations. So, I guess the answer to your question is "yes". It does have canadian maps in it!

Yep, I have the same problem.Not sure why Mio introduces such a limitation.I asked my shop and they received confirmation from Mio that it should work.Unfortunately loading the maps fails, even if you copy them in the prime memory under the maps folder.The European maps use the fbl extention, the US ones use .map, not sure if this is the key to the problem.Anyway, if Mio thinks I will buy another Mio to use European maps then they are dreaming...

I have the Maps of whole of USA and Canada with updates, I do not have maps of Europe. I assume that one could buy maps of UK & Europe from Garmin or Amazon by down loading through your computer.

Hi MattI purchased a Motoactv golf edition GPS watch that source their GPS maps from skydroid as I understand.I play golf frequently both in USA and Canada. My Motoactv shows very accurate distances as well as the proper par for each hole in all course in the USA.However, in all Canada or courses in other countries, ALL holes will be displayed as par fours, no exception.Though the distances to greens and hazards etc. are still accurate.I called Motorola support and they cannot rectify the situation for me.Any suggestions you can make ?I have the most recent update from Motorola for all maps, device as well as computer updates.Thanks for your help !Hubert Hi MattI purchased a Motoactv golf edition GPS watch that source their GPS maps from skydroid as I understand.I play golf frequently both in USA and Canada.

Just purchased a lifetime map subscription yesterday. The downloaded map says "US & Canada". Note also that the product description on the Amazon page says "detailed maps for United States and Canada".

The Gpsmap 78sc has charts for Ca and Hi. Only the sc, not the other models.

Unless the ad states that the GPS has the latest firmware I don't think there is any way to tell. When/if you get the GPS load the free software program VantagePoint from Magellan, it will update the firmware, this is a very handy program.I hope this helps.
