Ask Garmin. They are good about responding to their registered users. I use the GPS maps on a micro-SD card and they work in my Monterra, Montana and my Etrex 30, all of which accept a micro-SD card.

The model I purchased was the Nuvi 2597. It came with US maps already on it but no other countries that I am aware of. I recommend you can visit the Garmin website for specific information about how to get the software for the particular maps you are looking to add. I believe there are maps for other countries that can be added for approximately $50.00. I personally paid someone to add the maps for me as I am in Costa Rica. I was apprehensive because I did not want to risk paying for the software online, and then if it does not work, I could experience a difficult time being reimbursed. I wanted to know that I was getting exactly what I paid for, so I chose that route. I hope this is helpful. Good luck with your search.

Check your local Garmin dear in Australia either another GPS device shops or buy online Australia map from Garmin. Like me I installed from Saudi Arabia for all Middle East and also from Pakistan to use inside Pakistan.

I have reviewed the Tom Tom website and there are other languages available on this particular GPS model. Not all of South America is covered but Brazil, Chile, and Argentina are.The web site has a customer service center where specific questions can be addressed. The So. American maps my need to be purchased and downloaded separately IF they do not have a country specific model available.

If this thing cannot find me standing in my own front yard, how can you expect to find you deep in Mexico. In theory if you have current maps and the GPS hardware is working you should be able to go anywhere. However, mine purchased brand new had maps that were 16 versions off and it was 300 feet off as to my GPS location. I have been working with them for weeks to get it straight and fixed. First you will not have the correct cord to connect to your computer, so you cannot update the maps without it. Then the current maps costs extra up to $100, so you are not getting a useable product properly updated out of the box.

Get in touch with their customer service, the service is amazing... Had some problems with the adaptor which here in Costa Rica is around $50(believe it or not) and was amazed when they sent me one without charge.. Will definetly be buying from them again.

No U.S. costal charts are included. Only the base map is available. I believe that would be on the Navionics or Lakemaster addon chips.

I have another recommendation. Don't buy a GPS; buy a phone. Nokia phones with GPS have free OVI maps that include points of interests. The Nokia 5230 is a four band GSM phone that will work in China, with the addition of a Chinese phone card and the unlock code from your cellular provider, unless you buy the phone unlocked from Nokia. You do have to tweak the phone a bit to get the Chinese characters for points of interest; I found the instructions on the web. You need to download the map to your phone from the OVI store site, but maps are available for countries all over the world. The phone costs about $130

I'm from Brazil and I use a Forerunner 10. The GPS is pretty accurate when used in open spaces.

Am from the caribbean,not sure if it would work in Costa Rica,try looking at the band and see if it is compatable with your country.

Yes, I am doing a similar search now. The Garmen EchoMap 50DV has a very capable GPS with the photo-like sonar integrated, and I have found that unit with a full US offshore map set for about $670 - I believe the unit allows recording shots with GPS coordinates for playback later. The Lowrance unit with similar features seems more expensive. This sonar unit seems to be a great one for the image, and you could always mark on a separate GPS as you observe the bottom features.

This map actually didnt work when my wife and i went to Iceland last year. We had to rent a GPS from the Budget Rental Car place and didnt have a problem with theirs.
