I'm traveling for a month or so and using my Verizon cell modem, which has a 5 Gb per month download limit, wondering how much of my download allocation this will consume? And how long it typically takes? I have two days left on my free post-purchase upgrade. Depending on the size and how long it takes, I may need to find another internet connection to get it done. Any help with these two pieces of info would be much appreciated.

Upgrade
It's 2+ G and depending on speed will take a very long time.

I downloaded a 2010.40 map this morning using cable connection and it took a little over an hour for the 2.2gb file.

With 1gb DSL it took me 4 hours !!!
Site said 4 connections. I believe it's more Garmin's site than my DSL speed.

It said "4 connections" while I was downloading too.
ok, thanks to everyone, that gives me an idea
of what is ahead. I think I'll head to a friend's house tonight (dsl) and let it download to an external drive through one of his machines overnight.
