All is well.
I am well!!, how about yourself?? sooo you need a map ha ha, I don't know TOM TOM, I have a few Garmins...but truthfully here in the US, I just use my phone like Caribe says!!...it doesn't talk to me...but it is pretty accurate. can we ask where ya heading?? I like driving down those way back roads and the kids just stared with their mouth open , like they saw a dinasour!! ha ha ha

that is true...a tom tom will have the info needed( if you get it installed) and as long as you can aquire the satelites you should be good to go!!
I had thought garmin updated its maps automatically.....
bob
I looked into this..... the first update is free
My purchase was July 2012 and it works beautifully.... Garmin compatible.
No satellite problems
and my Sirius/XM works well too in the car
Map updates are automatic but you need to connect to the internet ... they don't 'beam' it to you in your car

Google Maps will work offline soon...
Google Maps will soon include offline search and navigation | The Verge
I know my phone maps has traffic, and it is soo up to the minute accurate it is scary... I can see cars just starting to back up and sure enough google has it showing on the maps... I wonder if you get that kind of service up to date in the DR...like

First time I hear about Waze
, just educating myself:Google Maps Vs. Waze: Which Navigation App Is Better? : T-Lounge : Tech Times
I use Waze in the US, great program, but I also think it kills a battery very fast.
Hi!!! I'm good!!
I will be in a few places, San Jose delas matas, Jarabacoa, Sosua, Santiago. I do have a smart phone which i will be using down there, so I should be ok. I think i can get in and out of the cities ok. I ordered a paper map online, waiting for it, hopefully it has good street maps.
I like driving down those way back roads and the kids just stared with their mouth open , like they saw a dinasour!! ha ha ha Kids???????????
I couldnt download into the TomTom, i didnt find the Dominican Republic in their choices.

the "KIDS" were on the side of the road,(barely off the road at that!) NOT in my car!!! ha ha
there were a few stores in downtown Santiago that I bought maps at....one place had a good selection of maps too!! north,
central, southern, east ect.... they were large enough maps that covered a smaller area, so the detail was good enough to find almost all the roads.
the store had wooden shelves and they went down behind the cashier counter. they had lots of paper supplies...maybe it was an art store.
I can see it clearly in my mind...does that help? ha ha
