This is Magellan's site. Its a link off of their check for updates page. You
must not need a update or you would have found that out :^)

I posted it because so little people know of this. I was at a mission
yesterday and found someone else that had no idea updates were available on
Magellan's site, firmware or maps!

It is NOT Magellan's site; you said in your second sentence that it is a
link OFF of their site.

When I need to check for updates I go to Magellan's site and it tells me
there.
http://www.magellangps.com/support/
I just stepped through the process and it never takes me to the page you
provided.....at least not for my Maestro 4250.

Since that is an off-site link, there is no guarantee that it will continue
to be updated.
Indeed it would appear that it already may not be a part of the search
process anymore.

It is Magellan's web site. Every time you click on a link from anyone's web
page its a link! And can you not read, It says product support. Look at the
bottom it says ©2008 Magellan Navigation, Inc. All rights reserved. And at
the top is says Magellan Support.

Look at the very bottom of this product support page where it says powered
by noHold. http://www.magellangps.com/support/product.asp

Then look at the address of the web page I posted for the updates, it says
noHold.

http://www.nohold.net/noHoldCust57/P...p_updates.html

Now, let me make this simple for you, go to this web page.

http://www.magellangps.com/support/p...sp?prodid=2156

In ask Maggie click on option I need the latest firmware update for my unit.

Do you see in the list of questions for ask Maggie where it says, To see
information on map updates for all units, please click here. Click on
it!!!!!!!!!

Then copy and paste that URL like I did to share with people that needed a
update that didn't know how to get one, it is called a link!!!. Then click
on one of those links and there is the available update for the product that
it is linked too!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus man, don't have a cow.

It was and IS not obvious that the two sites are legitimately
associated.........without going through a lot of unnecessary crap.

If you want to help people without confusing them, just reference the
obvious Magellan site.

Labels are easy to fake. I don't know who you are. The link you provided
could easily contain something nasty. If you are trying to be helpful, be
responsible about it.

Net users should NEVER click on a link that they are not absolutely positive
about. That automatically means you never follow a link provided in a
newsgroup.......unless you REALLY know the poster.

Do you understand my concern now? I don't think I can explain it any
better.

Can you not see Carl's other posts with what you call obvious Magellan web
sites, it kind of shows he's not a harm. This group is dead it was kind of
nice to see someone with some input. And it was positive!
