Has anyone had a chance to play with the Sony NVU70? What did you think
of it? I see Sears is selling it online for sale at $481 until 6/24

It's got Navigon/OCN software (which I like) so Navteq maps, it's small
and cheap so that's good. However I asked two different store clerks
(one a Sonystore) about taking it on a transatlantic trip (and
therefore needing different maps then those pre-loaded).

They both said I just download the other maps for free from the Sony
website, I found that too good to be true. And sure enough there's
nothing resembling that on the Sony website.

With most all of these PNA devices there's no indication of how/if it's
possible to get newer maps.
