1. Does not update over the air.2. This particular device is mean't for North America including Mexico. You will need to buy one mean't for the middle east, or buy an additional map for the middle east. You will not get map updates though (at least official updates).

No you have to pay for the app and I found that this was additional expense monthly that I did not want to maintain. I returned it

It comes with copyrighted navigation maps which can be updated online at naviextras.com. It is free to update the latest version within 30 days from first time this unit receives gps signal.

It sure indeed is a brilliant forum. I´ve looked for my answer there and from what I learned the device I was actually looking for was C310 and not C310x. A software hack was required in order to read the ROM so I gave up on this unit and chose a NAV200 from Delphi which stores all its maps in the external SD card thus making it much simpler to switch to maps from other countries. I also had to consider the fact that navteq, route 66 and destinator are the only available providers of maps to Brazil and US (the countries I need).

so the map in it doesnt 'expire' forcing you to get a new map? i was under the impression it was like a subscription and after x amount of time the device didnt work any more til you got the new subscription..?

I bought factory refurbished and i satisfied with the quality and to update the map just visit the website and connect your device when you install the application, it will guide you to update your map immediately.

It has maps for the entire country initially. However, after you hook it up to your computer, it will do a live update to whatever area you select you want to be more detailed. For instance, I live in the mid-west so I asked it to focus on this area. You would just ask it to focus on the eastern states of your interest. I love my Garmin nuvi! I hope this helps.

It doesn't matter. ALL of its maps (incl Europe) get a free update within the first 30 days of purchase (I just bought mine). Just update the maps with the initial free map update BEFORE you register the subscription to lifetime free maps on North America.And, of course, both NA (& Mexico) & all of Europe will not fit on the WTE at the same time. So update North America first. Then move it to your PC's HDD. Then update the Europe map (download it ALL). Then put the Europe map over on your HDD and put North America back on your 540. The NA maps come out 4 times a year. Why not update them? It's free and not a hassle. It takes about 45 min. It doesn't matter.

I am so glad that you posted this update as Euro updates would have been essential to me too. I looked and found no exclusion to suggest they weren't included. Very naughty of TomTom ! Worth a challenge if you can put up with the attitude of the customer service staff. I had a similar experience with the purchase of a refurbished TomTom which suggested that it had the latest maps. They weren't !!! They were three updates out of date immediately. Buyer beware.

Yes but you have to be connected to a wireless connection as it cannot be added to a wireless companys plans. It also needs restarting every few hours as it freezes. I don't think it has the specs it is advertised as having either. But it has GPS locating service so long as u have a wireless connection and it has Google maps

No you have to pay for map updates. The maps that come with it are pretty up-to-date, but not the most up-to-date. The unit gives you a website to go to for updates, and the process is pretty straightforward, but it does cost some money

Garmin sells GPS maps for around the world. I just did a quick search, and indeed, I see a map for the Garmin that covers Israel.

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.

No, it will work with any map app on your iPad without being in wifi range.. with wifi only the app used wifi signals to find your location, with a GPS blue toothed to your device it will determine where you are with the GPS. You will not be able to search for things like restaurants, you need to now an address of where you are going for directions.

Their marketing indicates that the updates include the map of Europe, but in fact it does not.See the company's statement at: http://www.tomtom.com/en_us/services/other/lifetime-map-updates/#tab:tab2

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.

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).
