Is Four Square updated with Map Updates or is that a separate Down Load................

Map.

My guess is that it is updated with the map, just like POI's, but really, I don't know. We could probably ask a related question ... "Is there any evidence that Four Square is ever updated?"

Map update

What is Foursquare?
Foursquare is a database to help users explore new and popular restaurants, stores, and more. Certain Garmin devices1 are preloaded with a Foursquare point of interest database; this adds millions of new and popular locations onto your device. A Bluetooth compatible device2 can be paired to a smartphone to use Smartphone Link for added functionality with Foursquare, such as viewing Trending and Best Places in your area. The Foursquare information is updated with each map update.

Another question about Foursquare.

I do not have it on my 3597 but can use it on my Smartphone through Smartlink. It is very useful in a strange place to find eating places and I like the ability to send a location as as waypoint to my Nuvi. But, on the Nuvi I can set to another location (GPS off) and look up POI's, I cannot find a way to do this with Fousquare. Am I missing something simple or is this not possible?

This gives information on your question. http://www.gpspower.net/garmin-tutorials/333052-foursquare-p...
