Raises couple of interesting observations since my 2month old TT Go 740TM Live came delivered with lifetime North America Map subscription (US/Cdn).

1. Always thought Mexico was part of NA.
2. If TT keeps waffeling, and settles on US alone, what would be impact on my map subscription?
3. Why don't they get smart and deliver the 740 with an 4gb microsd card installed and default map installation to the card or build the 740 with 4-6gb on board. Either case, possible $0.75 cost impact to them.

Think of the marketing coup!

The recommendation is just a recommendation. You can still buy either map.

I assume that if you're unit came with the lifetime North_America_2GB subscription, you'll continue to get North_America_2GB forever.

But given the new "splitting map" changes that occurred in Europe, there's a chance you'll get to dynamically choose: North_America full (requiring an SD card), USA-only, or Canada-only in a future quarter.

In europe now, if you buy a Europe map, you end up with 5 maps: Europe full, Europe north, Europe South, Europe East, and Europe west. And you can swap them out at any time.

You know, I've been begging for an American 940 release for over a year now. It has lots of things that are missing on the 740 (music/fm/ept), not to mention 4gb space.
