Buy the CD's and not the cards
  
This review is from: Garmin City Navigator for Detailed Maps of Major Metropolitan Areas in Europe (microSD/SD Card) (Electronics)
I bought the Micro SD cards because I thought it would be better so that all the maps are on the card and can just plug it into my GPS. However, if you want to download specific routes or biking routes which I have done, you have to also purchase Way Point Trip Manager in order to transfer the information. If you purchase the CD you can transfer the information with Map Source which is included with the GPS. Had I known that I would have had to purchase extra software to be able to transfer the information, I would have bought the CD's.

A must if you have a rental car or are on foot
This review is from: Garmin City Navigator for Detailed Maps of Major Metropolitan Areas in Europe (microSD/SD Card) (Electronics)
OK, it IS stupid and overdone to give a name to your GPS monitor, but we did it anyway. She is Diane and we love her. Confused only rarely, she knows even the smallest, narrowest streets in France and Italy. Nearby hotels and gas stations are comprehensive and lifesavers, at times. The list of local attractions and historical points of interest and landmarks is also comprehensive and a nice addition to our "Rick Steve" tour book. I take (the map) loaded on my Garmin NUVI with me when I leave the car, not only to prevent theft, but to navigate the streets of Lyon and Rome by foot as easily as behind the wheel, also to mark where I left my car, etc. etc. etc. I will never leave home without it.

Very accurate, comprehensive map of Europe
  
This review is from: Garmin City Navigator for Detailed Maps of Major Metropolitan Areas in Europe (microSD/SD Card) (Electronics)
I found very little wanting in this product. The maps are incredibly accurate, even for areas far from city centers. My only complaint is that the interface does not behave the same as it does when looking at the built-in maps of North America. Many cities, for example, do not appear until the map is zoomed-in on the region, and only then does the map for that area load and zooming out is again possible. Before I discovered this trick I was under the impression that very few metropolitan areas were covered. Only after zooming in to the neighborhood level did the right panel load, and it was possible to see the full layout of that country or region.

The map also seems very recent. Some streets we did not expect to find were in fact on the map, so there is little to complain in this regard. I was also happy with the price. Definitely beats buying a dedicated unit for Europe.

Great Plug and Play SD card
This product worked as advertised. Just plugged it in and it started working after it found the satellites in Europe. It had details for small roads and all major highways.
