That's when the maps on my Go 720 (copyrighted in 2007) were last up-to-date: in 2000.
I bought this unit partly because it was supposed to be easy to update. That was, of course, before I discovered that it is impossible to update. The updated maps (2007) take up more memory than the unit has. They also don't fit on a 2 GB SD card (which as far as I can tell is the biggest card the device will support). It probably wouldn't be so big, but you have to download the whole of North America, to include Canada and Mexico.
So, for five-hundred dollars, I got seven-year-old maps that I can't upgrade. I probably could have bought a seven-year-old atlas for fiftey cents. I will be running back to Garmin now.Get more detail about TomTom GO 720 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator.
