Bad news but it is what most of us was expecting. One of the reasons I went for The Nuvi 52 instead of paying for the update to 2013.1. I did not know at the time though that I would get t he update free because they discontinued Topo & Rec which was the map installed on the Nuvi 200 at the time

What alternative(s) do we have after December 2013 or should we avail ourselves of this opportunity and live with it thereafter?

[dasilvarsa]

You cannot have both 2013.1 and 2013.2 on the same Computer or the same GPS
The reason is that both use the same FID and thus the same license.

So if your Map does not show up in Mapsource, Basecamp you need to delete or unistall the 2013.1

So where does this leave us? What do we use now?

The Smart Money Says
Buy a new Unit Tom Tom or Garmin with Lifetime Maps

[Jan Horn]

Ian depending on your current unit It may be advisable to buy City Navigator Lifetime maps at an cost of R849 if my memory serves me right. I will see If I can find a list of compatible units somewhere on the net and post it here for information. In the mean time the latest update will still be viable for a few months so there is no reason for panic at this time. With the festive season on hand there will also be a few specials that may be worth while waiting for. Anyone seeing something worthwhile please feel free to post the details here.
