Just uploaded new 2012 maps to sat nav, what a palaver, girl at Garmin had to take over and run laptop and it took her over 1/2 hour. then it took 3and a half hours to download on my dongle, had to recharge it twice used about 5g, and that was only uk maps, got to put Europe on a 4gb SD card. Why can't they delete all internal memory and go from there. All of western Europe is on the Mac somewhere, not found it yet, I know its there I got over 10g of memory missing and used. Could have bought an awful lot of maps.
like shell,
have lifetime maps, zumo 550, but an earlier one (with the 2gig memory)
so have to delete lots every time i update otherwise not enough memory to download,
such as saved routes, old "favorites" and recent data,
if you do that and just leave it to sort itself out over night its usually ok.
If you want to free up space connect it to your pc and within the menu options delete all languages other than the one you want this will give you some extra room hth
If anyone wants a tutorial I will post one ?

did that a while ago twin,
i think the prob with my nav, is its old (like me) and full of "favorites"
being cafes, cake shops, fav roads in europe, and hotels i like,
using up its limited memory (2mb instead of the new 5`s)
i do not seem to be able to delete "french emily`s " voice though, that would be just wrong!
least argumentative navigator i`ve ever had,
and never once said "i told you so"
which is a common occurance with my navigating
(though to be honest that depends on the view, cafes and how twisty the road looks far more than an actual destination if folk are ever stupid enough to let me in front)
