Garmin.com - they'll send you a free DVD with the updates, and then you give them 75 Euros for an unlock code. Its the least expensive way of doing it.

I got mine in the post yesterday , all I had to do was reply to an e-mail I
got from Garmin this included submitting serial numbers etc, I have my
unlock code from the last up-date and assume it will work the same
way. Only lesson learned from last up-garde is I had to get a new 2gb
SD card.

So you download to the sd card and not the unit?

Yes Ken,
I loaded the CD onto my computer and saved it , then transfered it onto
the sd card using the card reader yoke. I haven't loaded the latest CD
but will let you know who I get on when I do.

I've got a Garmin i3 and it's currently running V9 mapping. Has much changed with the new upgrade that is now available?
Is it worth the money?

Only think is I've already done this for the update from V8 to V9?
I'll give it a try and see how I get on!
Is it any good Ger? How detailed is it?

I received the disk today but unfortunately when I tried to upload it I was asked for a unlock code!
When I tried on line to unlock the disk it requested $75…
Anyone any “suggestions”?

"Suggestions", unfortunately no. I searched, intensively, for a keygen for Garmin products, and one doesn't exist. They're very secure indeed. 75 bucks seems to be the only option.
