I have a hand me down GPS that told me the maps were older than a year. I registered the product with Garmin and it performed a free software update. Does that mean the maps were also updated or is that something different?

    No

    A firmware upgrade updates the s/w in the device. A map update is separate and may not be free. TV guy
