    When I said an error in the map data, I meant only for that very specific location. It is NOT a widespread error that occurs everywhere. It was only for the particular address in question, and it has already been fixed. Rest assured that there are no issues with our map data. Sorry for the confusion.

    Don Hillock Dr does appear in our next map release. I do not see 1100 Finch Ave in Concord, ON. And I cannot enter Concord and then Finch, as you described. I cannot find the address on Mapquest either.

    Please describe the freezing issue. When does it freeze, and what are you doing when it happens?

    No, I have not abandoned you! I have been involved in a lengthy project that is soaking up all my time. Sorry I have not been around.

    I do not see that address in our map database, and I cannot find it on Mapquest either. Nor in Google Maps. Either there is an error with your address, or maybe it is very very new and not had a chance to get into GPS maps. Or perhaps some other weird issue.

    Pretty much every nav unit out there uses either TeleAtlas or Navteq for their mapping. Google Maps happens to use TeleAtlas, and MapQuest uses Navteq. If you can't find an address on Google Maps nor on MapQuest, then I don't think any nav units have it!

    mapquest have 1100 finch ave w listed as in Toronto --when entering this address I tried concord witch is part of Toronto I also tried Toronto and north York and downsveiw with no success with the 7700 goggle map and yahoo both list it as concord ont In all fairness concord north York east York downsveiw etobicoke and Scarborough were amalgamated into Toronto over 6 years ago so when we enter address that wont come up I try the surrounding nabourhoods the 7700 seems to have a lot of problems in this area
