LOL... part of it also has to do with NNG actually purchasing the maps from NT for Primo. Hopefully they hear our cries and realize that the NT maps are far superior in NA than the TA maps are.

isnt that good?

Oh... it is good for people in North America, however since NNG doesn't really do much business on this side of the world it seems only fiscally responsible that they eventually choose between TA or NT. I am not saying this is the case, I just think the Navteq maps seem to randomly come where the TA maps seem more consistent in terms of purchase by NNG for their igo products (speaking strictly about NA). There should be 4 NT updates quarterly. Usually we are lucky to see 2 of those updates available for igo8 and/or Primo. This year we might see Q2 and Q4, but neither seem available as of yet... at least not for igo.

so i'll end up having to buy a GARMIN to have NavteQ maps or what,,,,
