This is the info from the MEDIA CENTER 430/430N (RBZ/RHB) Users Manual page 123. I went to the suggested web site and purchased the map update. It was sent to me by snail mail. I followed the instructions that came with the DVD, the upadte took about 45 minutes to complete.

Thank you!
You're a lifesaver. Web site had just what I was looking for to update my RHB. Only thing is my GPS is only 2yrs old. How much could change in 2 yrs for $149 bucks to upgrade. I didn't expect to pay that much. I might wait another year then make the upgrade. Your thoughts? Did you notice any changes not there before? $149 bucks is a bit much for minor updates.
