Canadians, beware of outdated maps

Date of Review: Nov 18, 2006

The map software for this unit does not recognize changes in highway signing the occurred when routes such as Highway 2 and 18 were downloaded to regional governments. There are areas of my city where roads have changed 15+ years ago and this is not in the maps. For the fellow whose Walgreen's wasn't on the list even though it's been around for three years - I envy you. Mine is missing 15-20 year old locations. Even the business I work at, which has been at its current location since 2003, is not in the Garmin's database. But the store that was here before is there.

This is very unfortunate because the unit is otherwise a fine piece of equipment in terms of operating and ergonomics. But if its data is horribly outdated and thus can't navigate reliably, it's useless to me regardless.

For those who drive only on well-established main routes, I'm sure this problem might not have presented itself. But it's not the 401 I need help navigating on!

It's going back.

Pros
Ergonomically excellent, very intuitive operation, great display, fast up.
Cons
As stated, outdated maps and outdated data make this unit of dubious value to me.
