[Please note: These units come with the latest Garmap Southern Africa Streetmaps detailed map software pre-loaded onto a SD/microSD memory card ONLY. There is no CD or DVD in the box!
(If you would like to load the maps to a PC as well as to the unit itself, you will have to purchase the Garmap Africa Series DVD and download the Southern Africa Streetmaps maps from the DVD to your PC).
This is a true Plug-and-Play solution for those who simply want to take the unit out of the box, insert the SD card and start navigating straight away without having to go through the whole loading of the maps to a PC, online registration and unlocking process of the CD map version.
Apart from the ease of using a Plug-and-Play system like this, the pre-loaded SD memory card can be inserted in any of the other Plug-and-Play GPS systems and the maps will work. The maps are unlocked to the SD card itself, unlike the CD map versions which are registered and unlocked to a specific GPS unit and can only be used on that unit.]
