How do you check to see what map version you have and if it is the lasest on that is offered?

Should I be concerned that if I were to get one, it would come with such an "old" version? Or is v6.50.... nearly an impossible combo with a "v4" unit?
Well guys, I finally did it tonight. Went to the local Circuit City with 1 discount coupon (10% courtesy of AAA), 3 gift cards (courtesy of my company), and my credit card. Came home with the One, "v3" - serial number starts with a "z" and no SD card.
I must say, this thing is pretty awesome. Took about less than 2 minutes to find 6 satellites and I was inside my house. BTW, how many should you find to be consider a "good signal"?
Anyway, I held my breath and powered up the unit to see what version I have with all this debate about maps version. Well....it's 6.56. Given what you folks have told me I think I'll stick with this until I have a need to upgrade to 6.65.
Haven't done anything with the accompanied software so I'll do a full backup once I get Home installed.
Thanks to all who have posted in the past as I was a heavy lurker to gather info before making the big purchase. The user interface is the best out there in my opinion (after playing with the Nuvi 200 and Magellan 4000 for an hour at the store).
This is going to be fun!
Jimbo,
Damn, you're right! 6.560 is the firmware version. MAPS version says 665.1293. Now I'm bummed......or should I be?????
I tried it the first time for routing to work this morning is was dead on. It even knew the street that was inside the campus (I work for a major pharma company with a huge campus - guard gated so they are private streets).
