    Tomtom GPS query

    On behalf of a friend, (I don't know anything about gps units)

    Specifically for a tomtom: Can I buy a tomtom with NZ and Australian maps (or buy the maps later) and switch between them at will?

    I see there is a very expensive model that has NZ, Aust, USA and Europe maps preloaded. Can I do the same thing with just Aust and NZ on a cheaper unit?

    Cheers,

    It's not for me, and it does have to be a tomtom.
    Thanks for your replies.

    Like they said, the Tom Tom comes with local maps (for whatever country you bought in in), but you can install the other maps as required.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.

    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    When I went to Europe, it was cheaper to buy a new TomTom then buy the upgrade maps.
