How loud would you be screaming and moaning if they announced the map update would be out next Tuesday and then it didn't come out until a week from Thursday? It would be best not to announce a firm date.

I did say a tentative date. Anything is better than this unnecessary guessing bs.

Feb 14

Maybe Valentine's Day ... Garmin's way of saying it loves all of us.

Yup, that's it.

Map updates are like a box of chocolates ... you don't ever know what you are going to get ... or when you are going to get it.

A 2689LMT in both our cars that we love... and a Nuvi 660 with Lifetime Maps that we have had literally forever.... And a 2011 Ford Escape with Nav System that is totally ignored!

I'm not a betting man but a few weeks ago I thought the most likely date would be during the 2nd week of Feb so I think we're due.

wink Doesn't matter to me--I'll be away from my PC for the next few days so even if it comes out, I'll need to wait until Friday or so at the earliest to update my three units. At least I've updated my Rest Areas and RL/Speed cams to the latest versions for today's drive to Phoenix.

my guess

IMHO, we won't see an update until april.

It's sad

Garmin could easily ease or minds by making somekind of statement on reease date even if it's estimated. When the customer learns to expect an update and you don't give him one isn't it better to say something rather than say nothing?

Sun, 02/13/2011 - 1:26pm

I think...

Garmin reads this thread... they're intentionally messing with us...

2011.4 is scheduled to be released sometime mid-February. The 16th to be exact, but that can slip depending on how everything goes.

Your well connected when you know 14 days in advance the release date cool
