Does the Garmin 250 or 200 come with Street name announcements, or just "right & left turn now?" Is the voice annoying? Henry
1077299
no. There are no street name announcements in the 200 or 250. Look at the nuvi 260 and nuvi 350.

Biggest difference between the 250 & 200 is that the 250 comes with North America maps & 200 is just the US. Neither says the street name, can select different voices. Try this link to compare model features.https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134

Hi Thomas,Since I just have the 78 I'm not sure. With the 78 I bought the micro card that gives me maps of all US, Canada, some Bahamas and Mexico. The original GPS without the card gave only a no detail sketch of landmasses. with the card, it does show depths and boys of the great lakes areas. According to the west marine catalogue, the SC comes with the chart I bought preloaded, which is a really good deal. Had I realized I would be buying the chip, it would have made more sense to get the SC. I'm thinking about adding the chip with topographic features for land travel. http://www.westmarine.com/buy/garmin--gpsmap-78sc-marine-handheld-gps-receiver-with-compass-and-barometer--11553609 Hi Thomas,Since I just have the 78 I'm not sure.

Honestly, I believe the maps are US/Canada only if you bought it here in the States. However, many models offer other maps via download. You would have to obviously pay up (almost as much as a new GPS unit or more) for that. Totally not worth it if you asked me. So to answer your question, the 540 does not have maps for Europe on it.

I didn't use the GPS in New Zealand, only Australia. I will say, thought, that based on my experience with Garmin maps in Australia and in South Africa and Costa Rica, I've never ever not had the mapping product live up to the quality and thoroughness of Garmin maps. I'm 99% confident this product will give you the maps and roads you will need. To speak of the thoroughness if Garmin maps, when I used it in Costa Rica, the map even alerted me to large potholes from where the back road had been washed out.

You should check directly with Garmin. I think there is a very rudamentry map which is not of much use on its own. The package may include a card with a preloaded map or disc such as N. America

The company literature refers customers to www.garmin.com. There is a reference to City Navigator Europe NT. Apparently the extra maps can be downloaded from their web site for an additional charge. Best to contact the company and verify all of this information before buying.

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.

As far as I can tell, the maps are current. You get regular updates after you register your GPS (just log in with it connected to your computer).

It comes with both Lifetime Maps and Lifetime Traffic. Be advised that if you are using Windows XP Media Center Edition, the updated will not download and install. Any later Windows version works just fine. Garmin customer support was extremely helpful in making the Map update go smoothly.

It should have come with a North American map installed. Perhaps you can download it, but I would contact Garmin. I've had very good responses from email inquiries.

I thought it was just North America, but I could be wrong. Looking at the product features now, it says "Preloaded maps for North America and Europe, includes over 8 million points of interest."

Mine didn't come with the UK maps either It came with 10 othe maps. But you will have to plug into computer and download the maps your looking for

Navigon continues to officially sell maps in Europe, but no longer officially supports North America. As a matter of fact, they ended hardware sales and support in North America years ago...friend laid off as a matter of fact. If you're tech savvy, there are unofficial, generic maps available that are supported by this unit, but you'd need to look up which file type and then download it to a flash card. I started using Google Maps on Android and traffic is only tradeoff...Google Traffic isn't quite "fully baked" yet. Stand alone GPS era has just about passed into history. :- (

Sorry, I forgot if a map was preloaded or not as I bought a while ago.I think US and Canada maps are preloaded. I only remember that I can choose either eastern US or upper US or lower US, something like that. It is very good in direction. It shows the picture of your current road and the exit road you need to take. It also says like: take either on two left lane or right lane.
