Amazon.com Product Description

Thanks to the Garmin MapSource City Navigator North America NT Version 8, which gives you access to all the data you need to navigate North America, you may never have to ask for directions again. This software automatically creates point-to-point routes in MapSource and on your NT compatible Global Positioning System (GPS), and includes detailed, premium street maps of North America, plus a hefty points of interest database at your fingertips.

Featuring full coverage of the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico, including metropolitan and rural areas, the Garmin MapSource City Navigator North America NT Version 8 makes it a snap to travel to a new city, look up your hotel, restaurants, and other services, and then use your compatible Garmin GPS to guide you there. For added convenience, you'll be able to take advantage of detailed maps containing highways, interstates, business and residential roads with attributes such as turn restrictions, roundabout guidance, speed categories and other navigation features. Ideal for vacation-planning, the Garmin MapSource City Navigator North America NT Version 8 also displays nearly six million points of interest, such as postal offices, attractions, shopping, and emergency services. The Garmin MapSource City Navigator North America NT Version 8 and data cards include the same detailed maps, points of interest and coverage areas as the traditional City Navigator North America data, just compressed differently for your NT compatible unit.

The Garmin MapSource City Navigator North America NT Version 8 is designed for use with StreetPilot 2720, 2730, 2820, 7200, 7500 and the StreetPilot C-Series. It's also compatible with the StreetPilot i-Series, iQue 3000, M3, M4, Quest 2 and various handhelds such as GPSMAP 60Cx/60CSx/76Cx/76CSx and eTrex Legend Cx/Vista Cx.

Customer Reviews

Up to date maps

The maps are very up to date. I live in an area with a lot of road construction and these maps are very up to date. Even showing roads only added within the last 12 months. However the software to create/manage routes leaves a little to be desired. Not too wild about it for now.

Don't buy if you want current maps

Do not buy this item if you want current maps. I just purchased this item from Amazon.com (at a higher price of course). This is a 2008 version of the City Navigator maps. The Amazon listing does not mention this fact. There is a 2009 version of the maps. Amazon should not even be selling this version. Garmin wants to charge me for an updated cd and of course wants to charge shipping and tax as well. Can you spell rip off.

Unlocking is a nightmare

As others have said, the shipped product is V9 for 2008. Attempting to install City Navigator NT North America V9 places only the locked map into your existing MapSource. Now the nightmare begins.

CTRL-U from MapSource brings up the unlock wizard. The only option it gives is to go online. The Garmin website it takes you to is a swamp of circular steps and silently failing scripts.

Into this morass I tried to invoke the arcane codes it required. Unfortunately, you don't know what codes to use? Does Garmin mean the GPS serial number or the City Navigator serial number? What in tarnation is the "product code"? And where is this magic "unlock certificate" with a six letter secret code?

I finally located the certificate hidden in the massive, and tough, plastic outer packaging.

Entering this, the Garmin website refreshed but seemingly did nothing. Hello? Meanwhile, MapSource just sat there telling me that V9 was locked.

Navigating the Garmin site to MyMaps, I retrieve all maps for my GPS, to discover the worse-than-useless Garmin site just applied my new certificate to an old City Navigator V7 that I had.

So Garmin stole my money. They won't do a thing to rectify the problem.

If a software developer with 24 years of experience can't get this poorly implemented unlocking crap to work, what chance do you have?

Garmin N.A. maps

The maps are great. There are two things that prevent me from giving the a 5 star rating. First you are only licensed to put this software on one garmin GPS device. That means you would have to buy two copies if you wanted it for your hand held and for your car unit. The second problem is that every few years you have to dish out for a new set of maps.

You can find anything...

BOught this to add onto my Garmin hand held GPS, and it goes into detail as a true street navigator. You can look up and mark any address you want now and put it in your GPS to help you along the way.
