i order from uk site and later got this email...
Dear Sir / Madam,
In order for us to ship your order our bank require that we have a
fax copy of your order confirmation, both sides of your credit card
and some form of photo ID (a drivers license or passport is best)
I understand that this can be a burden but it helps us and our bank
to protect you from credit card fraud and you need only do it once -
when we have seen your details you can order from us again without
the need to re-send them.
more likely fraud from them if i gave all my details
what a nusiance is that the same for you guys or is it me only.

Dr 1628, when did you make the order? I ordered mine on 29th May at ard 0843GMT and they didnt ask me to do this "anti-fraud" thing...
i ordered this morning and got an email from hk expansys .dont know is it because i used a credit card home address and a different delivery address to my office hence they think i not the card holder.i also not sure why lei.

i fax them my details and everything is ok and they send immediately and true, they only need to do once to verify the genuine buyer and not fraud. Any dealings after this, no more verification needed.

Question: Since the maps are relative expensive (between $300 - $400) would there be free updates? If maps are updated constantly, do we have to pay for each updates? If so, then si peh siong!
Had a meeting at Hampshire Road today! Would have been great if I already had the nuvi.

GARMIN in the past usually put a free update coupon in the box. Therefore the first year is pratically free.
But you still can use the map without updates, only a longer detour thats all.
an update will cost something like 50-75 usd and can be obtain from garmin website.
but there are some minor updates Garmin put up at their website at no charge.

My Ride: Nothing to boast about!
Was looking around and found this uk site selling 360 with europe maps at ?379 (before VAT); just do not know if they ship internationally. This is unbelievable when US is selling at USD800+.
