Correct that Garmin's free update is only good for 90 days. If you didn't know, they now have a 'lifetime' map update product - instead of paying $70-$100 for one update, you can purchase a lifetime update for $119 - it allows you to download all of North America (US, Canada, not Mexico), and you can get updates 4 times a year for the life of your Garmin. It's compatible with the Nuvi series and one other model...I'm old so that escapes me right now...
The 2009 Garmin map has Villages info south to 466A on it, but using Lady Lake as the city is the key. You can get the lifetime update online at Garmin or purchase a 'key' from Best Buy or similar stores. You still have to go online to download it.

Hey...I thought THE LADY was the name of MY Garmin!!!
