Hi,
I was planning on buying the Plenio VXA-5000 GPS, I have a question with regard to the description of it. In the websites of costco.com and amazon.com, it says that it has the US map included but not Canada. My question is, Does it come with the Canada Map too? if not, Can we upload the Canada map? if Yes, How?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Thanks,
Sunny.

I am thinking of buying this unit, but first would like to have a look at the user manual PDF, does anyone have a link or might have tried out this unit?

Because nobody wrote me back, I went ahead and bough the Garmin 660 instead for $500, it comes with built in FM xmitter and can play mp3’s and also have bluetooth. Next choice would have been the Magellen 4050 but it does not have the mp3 or fm xmitter. Have fun and enjoy, thanks for nothing!
