    I have been bugging our Engineer to release the SD card. He says it should be available sometime next week. Sorry for the delay.

    being totally ignorant of anything electronic (except my remote control at home), do these things keep a "memory" of where you have been and how far you have traveled? i heard of a d.o.t. cop wanting to check a gps to see if a driver had traveled over a weight restricted route (he didn't), but the cop had gotten a report of a truck similar to the drivers truck going into a small town where it wasn't supposed to be. if it has this feature, can it be disabled? i can see a driver being beat up for being off 15 minutes for a logbook violation, etc..

    I think you may be a little confused.

    If you purchased the PC*Miler Nav 540 (list price $399) you already have the latest software and updates.

    If you purchased the PC*Miler 430 (list $299) PC*Miler is offering a FREE software upgrade.

    Simply go to PCMNAV.com and you'll find the software update there.

    We just released a new map update last week. There is no charge for it. I do not know whether future map updates will be free or if there will be a charge. It will be months before another update is available.

    UFO, somehow I missed your post. The answer is that the GPS does not store the route that you traveled. There is no way to look back at what roads you drove on.

    I got mine a few weeks ago from Amazon for $399 w/free shipping. I've been using it in my personal 4 wheeler truck since I've gotten it and love it! I think I bought the correct one...I'll be in a truck in a couple of weeks and since I've been using it already, I'm used to it. I only find one tiny glitch....sometimes after I shut it off,when I get back into my truck after a day out, I find it turned on! I dunno why this is happening, maybe Brian can shed some light on this issue.....oh, and a full documentation package would be nice. When I go to the Cobra website, the only thing they have is the Quick Start Guide that is included....

    Thanks in advance
