Full FeedGot a Navigon with lifetime traffic updates? You’re still covered
You may have heard that Navigon, a GPS maker, is pulling out of the North American market. That’s quite the shame because their products were pretty good. Plenty of Navigon units (including some low priced ones) had traffic updates for life. But what happens now that Navigon has quit this market?
No problem. You’re still covered. According to a Navigon representative, if you bought a device with lifetime traffic, then a third party vendor will still deliver service for you. Also, just because Navigon will no longer be marketing to North America doesn’t mean they won’t have a presence. They will have an office that will remain here to provide support.
So, if you’re looking for a low cost GPS with traffic updates for life—maybe grab a Navigon while they are still out there.

Okay, so where do we go for updates to Fresh Maps? I have not had an update since 2 Qtr, 2009 and I have not had this device (5100 Max) for no more than a eight months.
