Just found out today that the 997 that I purchased in 2008 only has NVB maps from 1996?? Seems as though they haven't updated the maps and don't plan to. Why would they not load or give you the updated maps pending on when you purchase the unit? If I would have known this I would have saved my extra $300 and purchased a 2008 NVB gold for $129 ea region. I only will need these 2 regions for now anyways. This is getting to be really expensive. I think that I may have to get a second mortgage to get this thing operating correctly!! Very Frustrating
