Garmin Micro Secure Digital North America Map CardUser Review: - Plug and Play Is The Way To Go!After reading all of the bad reviews of the software version I decided to order the pre-programmed micro SD card instead. What a great deal (I paid only $103.00)! For that I got all of the maps pre-loaded on a 2GB SanDisk Micro SD card with no headaches or problems. It works like a charm. The only drawback is that you cannot move the maps and waypoints to your MapPoint software. For me it is well worth it. User Review:  - Great but.........The maps are very detailed and they contain a plethora of POI's (Points of Interest). On very important point though any buyer should be aware of. You can't download the maps contained on this Micro SD card to your Mapsource Software, which pretty much makes the Mapsource software useless. I contacted Garmin and the very friendly customer service rep. said that the Micro SD cards maps can't be downloaded off the card on to your PC. She recommended (as I would) that if you want to be able to view the maps on your PC and use the PC to map routes, edit waypoints etc. buy the DVD's not the Micro SD. They are the same price. Bottom-line. If you want to just pop the card in your GPS device and use it then this item is probably the way to go. If you want to do more, especially with your PC, then get the DVD instead. I wish I had known this before I ordered non returnable software.
