for the navigation part of the system, does it have GPS for chicago city streets? or where would you download these maps from and put on the nav ?

Yes it ghas everything. In the navigation part you have to change the state when putting in your destination. From there as you putting your destination address it should show everything. But keep in mind some roads may have two or more meaning old and new name. So as a reference cross check the name through google maps to make sure everything is correct before puttung it in your gps.

It should have come with a North American map installed. Perhaps you can download it, but I would contact Garmin. I've had very good responses from email inquiries.

I know u can go to Wal-Mart or to radio shack or anywhere else that sells aftermarket navigation systems and they have updates for those types and could probably point you in the right direction. .

This isn't what your looking for if you want navigation. It's easier to just say it doesn't have it cause the nav was a major fail. The last update to the unit finally gave me decent results through mirrorlink but I don't know how well GPS works with an iPhone. Pass on this one

It has GPS, but most people found the software implementation to be seriously lacking. It takes a while to update your position. I've read that this has been fixed in the FroYo pre-release that was leaked, though, so it may be better once the official release hits in September.

GPS works well. Use it with Sygic offline navigation app all the time and in several countries.

I have the Australian version and it has maps of both cities and the road system all across Australia. I can navigate anywhere outside cities using it just like within the USA.

I emailed Garmin about the 2009 map updates, and getting them free as well since you purchased one now with the obsolete maps on it. This is what they had to say. Thank you for contacting Garmin International. Our newest version of mapping software was released in May of 2007. The title of this update is City Navigator NT 2008. Map updates are released every 12 - 15 months. You can probably expect our next map update to be released sometime in the Summer of 2008. To check for this update please log onto our website www.garmin.com and click on "MAPS" at the top of the page. The next screen will show "MAP UPDATES", please click on it. This will allow you to type in your 'serial number' in the search field. Type in your serial number and click on 'Find'. This will display your mapping update if there is one to order. If nothing displays this will indicate that your Garmin is already fully up to date. If a map update displays you will also notice there is a link that should allow you to register your product to receive this at no cost. If this is an option your first mapping update will be at no charge. ** Keep in mind for the future, map updates are at a cost. ** Map update can be ordered online from our website www.garmin.com, over the phone at 1.800.800.1020, or in local retail store like Best Buy, Circuit City, Wal-Mart etc. The cost for this update is generally around $75.00 to order. This will be a DVD formatted software disk that will be able to load to your computer. You will need a USB cable to connect your Garmin to the computer for the update to complete. This process is said to take around 45 minutes. This update will give your Garmin device updates on streets, highways, construction, restaurants etc. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns regarding this update

I don't know, but regardless, it is far inferior to Google maps. Streets and trips is a complete waste of money.

I live here in Miami and so far it's only been turn by turn, no street names. Also, while the GPS talks, your music mutes but keeps playing through. It's kinda annoying.

It comes with copyrighted navigation maps which can be updated online at naviextras.com. It is free to update the latest version within 30 days from first time this unit receives gps signal.

No, it does not display street names, only the main ones and even then, very few. It does display the street you are on and the directions are very clear and repetitive, though. Oddly, I live in South Florida and it does show the name of every single canal and lake. I have no idea why the software developers thought those would be of high interest to the user and not the detailed names of the streets. It does come preloaded with mapping software, and you get one free upgrade with Garmin within 30 days of registering the device with them. Hope this helps, but you've probably already made your purchasing decision by now. No, it does not display street names, only the main ones and even then, very few.

The stereo will work but I am not sure that the navigation will however I am not sure about that. I do not know if they have maps for trinidad loaded.

My City Navigator is a little disc (like a small battery) that fits into the back of my Garmin. If you have a question, call Garmin. They are very helpful even if you didn't buy it from them.
