Magellan has indicated that the decision to update maps will be dependent on the number of customer requests. I guess they feel if there is enough concern, they will plan on doing it. I wish they would, I would like to update mine. Still, this is what they told me about nine months ago. I guess its time for me to call again. Viper1 Map updates can be purchased (software updates are free) from the Magellan website (MagellanGPS.com > Products > Maps and Software, as of Jan 20, 2010). The latest update available right now is the 2009 Spring Map Update, available on an SD card for $80. eternicode

Ferdinand Magellan
Yes, he proved that there was a westward route from china to India that changed everyone's maps
There is no Cape of Magellan noted on any maps that include the voyage of Magellan. There are Straits of Magellan that are located in the waterway between Chile and Argentina in South America. The area at the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean off the Straits of Magellan might have been named Cape Magellan at one time.
There is not a regular interval between map updates. The Magellan website shows the date of the next update in the support section. Customers receive a free map upgrade within the first 30 days of purchase (if the maps are updated during this period).

Update prices are usually around $80 bucks for Magellan GPS systems. Pretty pricey if you ask me, but you can easily download the updates from their website: MagellanGPS.com/Maps. Just go to Vehicle Navigation Maps and select your device.

Garmin GPS is better in my opinion, as the features are better and the maps are far more accurate than the Magellan GPS. Don't get me wrong, it's very good but I recommend Garmin.
