The maps that showed a street as a through street but was actually a dead end. I mean no outlet since there is only one dead end street in The Villages have not been updated yet.

Also not all the golf courses have been updated as of the latest update, even though we send them in. That would really be helpful for the Village newbies.

If you are considering purchasing a GPS unit I have used them all and the Garmin is the easiest to use.
WONDERFUL! We will be moving to TV in January and will be buying a GPS device. I've read many posts here and it's very helpful.
